More than 25 hospitalized in NYC due to synthetic marijuana
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}More than 25 people have been hospitalized in New York City due to bad reactions to the synthetic marijuana known as K2.
WABC-TV reports that police responded to an intersection in Brooklyn's Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood Saturday.
Police say 33 people overdosed from K2 at the same location in 2016.

K2 is a name for a synthetic compound that mimics the effect of THC, the most psychoactive ingredient in marijuana. The drug can be many times as potent as the THC in marijuana.
