JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — Alaska's marijuana control agency has voted to revoke the license of a marijuana edibles manufacturer that's accused of selling moldy products.
The Juneau Empire reports that the state's Alcohol and Marijuana Control Office board voted on Friday to revoke the license of Anchorage-based Frozen Budz and to fine the company $500,000.
The vote marks the first time Alaska's pot regulators have revoked a license.
Board member Mark Springer says he hopes the case sends a message to other marijuana businesses.
Erika McConnell, director of the control office, says the company's products will be seized from retailers across the state.
Frozen Budz owners did not return the Empire's requests for comment.
The company will have an opportunity to appeal the license revocation.
