Boy charged with felony for carrying sugar

A 12-year-old Aurora boy who said he brought powdered sugar to school
for a science project this week has been charged with a felony for
possessing a look-alike drug, Aurora police have confirmed.

The sixth-grade student at Waldo Middle School was also suspended for
two weeks from school after showing the bag of powdered sugar to his
friends.

The boy, who is not being identified because he is a juvenile, said he
brought the bag to school to ask his science teacher if he could run
an experiment using sugar.Great moments in public education....
