A psychedelic trip went horribly wrong recently for two Michigan college students who took a relatively new hallucinogenic drug on the market: 25i.
“Two 18-year-old Eastern Michigan University students were taken to the hospital early Friday morning after being found ‘naked and hallucinating’ on campus,” reports the Ann Arbor News. “EMU police Chief Bob Heighes said the two men were having a party together … and ingested a synthetic hallucinogenic drug called 25i.”
“Both men were released from the hospital Friday … Police are investigating to see where the men obtained the drugs.”
Michigan isn’t the only place where this stuff is popping up.
Authorities in Boise, Idaho, have also seen similar overdoes, and said in a recent statement: “We want people to be aware, to talk with our kids and let them know this stuff is dangerous.”
“25i or 25I-NBOMe is a hallucinogen and is compared to LSD. It can be manufactured, but most often is purchased off the Internet, often in powder form, and inhaled, injected or snorted. Officers believe it may be being passed locally as a liquid blotted on the back of stamps like LSD, or in capsules. … Boise police are aware of at least four recent drug overdoses where individuals were hospitalized after reportedly taking 25i.”
Police in Utah this summer also warned more and more young people are taking the drug, nicknamed “N-Bomb.”
