A Brookline teen was severely injured after he had “magic mushrooms” and jumped from a sixth-story window, according to police who arrested a drug dealer accused of targeting local kids.

Brookline Police are now warning parents after this incident and the arrest of a 22-year-old man in Brookline Village.

Based on a tip, Brookline detectives began investigating a suspected drug dealer who goes by the name Niko. He was allegedly selling drugs to underage teens.

Some of the products were purchased at local marijuana dispensaries, where Niko allegedly bought the products that are legal for those 21-plus.

Many students at Brookline High School have reportedly been caught with items that Niko sold.

“One particular minor suffered severe physical injuries after ingesting magic mushrooms allegedly bought from Niko,” police said in a statement.

“These psychedelic mushrooms are suspected to have caused this minor to become so disoriented that he jumped from a sixth story window,” police added.

The teen is a Brookline resident who does not go to Brookline High School.

Magic mushrooms are not legal in Massachusetts, but there’s a movement to legalize them in the Bay State.

“Niko is suspected of having many teen customers, although there is no way to know exactly how many he has had over the past several years,” police said.

“Many kids unwitting victims of his harmful chemicals and toxins,” police added. “So, if you see some of these items in your teen’s room, don’t dismiss it as typical harmless pocket junk. Pay attention, and protect your kids from harmful substances.”
