SAN JOSE, Calif. (KRON) — Several dog treats discovered dumped at a San Jose park last weekend by a user on Nextdoor and Reddit, and believed to be poisoned, were just old, according to officials who spoke with KRON4.

The author of the posts said she was visiting Berryessa Creek Park with her two dogs around 1 p.m. Saturday when she stumbled upon dog treats that were scattered on a park path along Isadora Drive, near a public playground and elementary school. She said the smell of the treats was overwhelming and resembled insecticide.
The Nextdoor post reads, “The treats REEK of Raid Bug Spray. It smells like someone soaked them in Raid. I picked up as many as I could and found the abandoned jar they came in, but I don’t know if I got them all…KEEP YOUR DOGS AND KIDS SAFE.”
The post has sparked gratitude, outrage and concern among other Nextdoor and Reddit users…
