A Tel Aviv Pizzeria owner has been arrested, after he sprinkled synthetic marijuana on two cops' pizza.

"I knew the pizza was for the cops, but the guy I spoke with sounded cool on the phone and told me to put whatever I wanted on it," the pizza owner reportedly told the police after his arrest, according to Haaretz.

"So, instead of oregano, I sprinkled Nice Guy."

According to the American Association of Poison Control Centres, while drugs like Nice Guy are often called synthetic marijuana, but they are very different.

"These synthetic drugs can be extremely dangerous and addictive," the AAPCC said on its website.

It also listed the possible effects of the drug as follows:

  • Severe agitation and anxiety.
  • Fast, racing heartbeat and higher blood pressure.
  • Nausea and vomiting.
  • Muscle spasms, seizures, and tremors.
  • Intense hallucinations and psychotic episodes.
  • Suicidal and other harmful thoughts and/or actions.

"Nice Guy" turned out to be anything but for the two cops - who ended up in hospital after eating the drug laced pizza.

The police are now trying to shut the pizzeria down, before more people get a "Nice Guy" surprise.
