Report: 5 Psilocybin-Related 911 Calls Made Since Magic Mushrooms Legalized In OR

(Portland, OR) -- Oregon's legalization of magic mushrooms is creating a sprinkling of 911 calls. Oregon-live-dot-com reports newly released records show there have been five cases of psilocybin center staff members calling 911 or taking a client to the hospital since the drug was legalized 15 months ago. One of the 911 calls came after a client reportedly pulled a fire alarm. Another instance involved a client becoming paranoid and stepping onto a busy road as she tried to escape the clinic. Oregon Healing Advocacy Fund Director Heidi Pendergast says the small number of 911 calls speaks to the safety of the state's psilocybin program.
