Police said they do not know whether someone intentionally handed out the meth or whether it was a mistake, WLUK-TV reported.
The drugs were in a small, yellow bag about the size of a quarter.
Tribal leaders are asking parents to drop off their children’s Halloween candy at designated locations out of an abundance of caution.
