(CBS/AP) DUNDEE, Mich. - Police say a family found a pipe stuffed with marijuana inside a kids meal bought for a 4-year-old boy at a Burger King restaurant in southern Michigan.

According to CBS Detroit, the incident happened on Tuesday at the fast food restaurant when a family came for a bite after visiting a nearby water park.

Police reportedly said a man went into Burger King and bought a kids meal for his grandson but before giving it to the child he found the pipe in the box and notified police.

Dundee authorities report that a 23-year-old employee says he put the pipe in the box to hide it while he worked and he didn't mean to give it out.

Police arrested the employee and two other men ages 18 and 20 who do not work at the restaurant but were connected to the incident.

Formal drug possession charges are pending, according to the station.
