FunGuyz, a magic mushroom shop, opened its most recent store on King Street in Preston last fall.

Waterloo regional police completed a search warrant and arrested three people at the FunGuyz magic mushroom dispensary in Cambridge on Wednesday.

Members of the Waterloo Regional Police Services’ Drugs and Firearms Unit completed a search warrant at the illegal business on King Street East and seized a large quantity of suspect psilocybin in various forms along with Canadian currency.

In November of 2023, the location repeated the same offence and one person was charged.

 

 

As a result of yesterday's investigation, three individuals have been arrested and charged with offences against the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act.

The Waterloo Regional Police Service is reminding the members of the public that psilocybin being sold is classified as a criminal offence under the Controlled Drugs and Substance Act (CDSA), as psilocybin is classified as a schedule three drug.

Businesses selling these products are operating illegally and the substances sold are not regulated or quality controlled.
