“I kept telling him it is candy,” he said.

Two men were arrested by the NYPD then spent five days in jail for crack cocaine possession which, when the substance was finally tested, turned out to be coconut candy. The arrest occurred after the cops searched the men’s work van and discovered what they thought was crack cocaine. The men plan to file a $2 million suit against the NYPD.

One of the guys who was busted admitted he was “hooked” on the candy.
