SOMERSET, Ky. (AP) - Police say they confiscated hundreds of suspected hallucinogenic mushrooms from a home in Pulaski County, and charged a 45-year-old man with drug trafficking.

The Lexington Herald-Leader reports police found the mushrooms in an indoor-growing operation at the residence of Robert Keith Clark when they went to check on a report of a possible methamphetamine lab.

Dave Gilbert, director of the Lake Cumberland Area Drug Task Force, said Friday officers had counted more than 800 suspected mushrooms taken during the raid.
