Authorities in Austria are hunting a last remaining jar of baby food possibly mixed with rat poison in a suspected extortion scheme, police said on Monday.

Five tampered jars of HiPP-brand baby food have been recovered so far in Austria, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, but a sixth jar may “still be in circulation in Austria”, said police in the German state of Bavaria, who are leading the investigation.
