Q: Poisoned Baby Food. Girls Be Careful.

I just watched this on the news girl! Please, be careful! It is still going on and while this says it hadn't been confirmed, it now had been confirmed!

Baby-food tampering scare in california

parents in a southern california community are on edge over threats that baby food may be poisoned, but authorities urged them to be vigilant without panicking.

The orange county register reports that police are investigating two reports that cellophane-wrapped messages were found in gerber banana-yogurt deserts in a store in irvine. The jars were pulled from a ralphs grocery store, the paper reports, though the company declined to confirm exactly which store.

No cases of actual tampering were confirmed, authorities said.

The two notes were apparently written in the same hand. In an unusual twist, both notes referred to an unidentified irvine police officer, prompting the district attorney's office to join in the investigation.

"we don't know how widespread this is," lt. Jeff love of the irvine police told the register. "there are a lot of morally sick people in the world that might try to frighten the parents of a child."

Well when I watched it on the news out here, the jars had been opened and had notes in them. So they said to make sure the seal has not been popped yet. If they have alert someone right away.
