SHREVEPORT, La. (KSLA) - Halloween is known for costumes and candy, but it can also be dangerous.

“There are a lot of invisible and senseless drugs that are going around,” said Caddo Sheriff’s Deputy Nate Bourn.

To make sure you and your family have a fun and safe Halloween, follow these tips provided by Sheriff’s Safety Town:

Don’t let kids roam free. Know which houses they are going to.

Make sure children always have an adult with them.

Carefully inspect any candy that is collected. Check for dangerous objects and substances.
