Police issue public safety warning after boy finds needle at Mississauga park
They say the boy came into contact with the needle, and was taken to hospital as a precaution.
Officers closed the park while city crews inspected the area.
Police are reminding people that if they find needles or sharps on the ground, not to try to remove them and instead to call the city's 311 line.
A police spokeswoman called it an ``isolated incident,'' but said there have been similar incidents in the past.
