Nurses "after" grandfather accidentally thanks them with a cannabis cake

The nurses were left "in the face" after the grandfather of a patient accidentally gave them a cannabis cake as a thank you for watching over his family.

The grandfather brought leftover cake from his grandson's 18th birthday party, unaware that the baked product contained a special ingredient.

Warrington hospital officials said that only one nurse had eaten the cake, but another staff member, who asked not to be named, said that at least three or four four nurses felt "relaxed" after eating the red velvet cake.

"They ate the cake and the next minute, all the staff was disconcerted.

"It was a kind old man who brought it as a thank you, but it was filled with fun stuff and had all relaxed.

"The patients had no impact, but they all knew that something was wrong, so the police were called."

The Cheshire police tested the cake and confirmed that it contained a high amount of cannabis.

"The officers have now spoken to all parties involved and have given them sound advice.The case is now closed and the cake destroyed."
