javascript - Leaflet Draw "Cannot read property 'enable' of undefined" adding control to geoJSON layer

Question

I am trying to use leaflet's edit function on polygons that I loaded from my database. When I click on leaflet's edit button I get the error
Cannot read property 'enable' of undefined

This thread describes a similar problem, and user ddproxy said

"Since FeatureGroup extends LayerGroup You can walk through the layers presented and add them individually to the FeatureGroup used for Leaflet.draw"

I am confused what he means by "walk through", I thought I was adding a layer group, so i'm not sure what I would be walking through. Does this have to do with the fact that i'm adding the polygons as a geoJSON object?
Adding the polygons to the map, binding their popups, and assigning them custom colors works perfectly FYI.

The following is the relevant code:

<script>
window.addEventListener("load", function(event){
    //other stuff
    loadHazards(); 

});

//next 6 lines siply add map to page
var osmUrl = 'http://{s}.tile.openstreetmap.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png'
var osmAttrib = '&copy; <a href="http://openstreetmap.org/copyright">OpenStreetMap</a> contributors'
var osm = L.tileLayer(osmUrl, { maxZoom: 18, attribution: osmAttrib})
var map = new L.Map('map', { center: new L.LatLng(39.255467, -76.711964), zoom: 16 })

osm.addTo(map);

var drawnItems = L.featureGroup().addTo(map);
var Hazards = L.featureGroup().addTo(map);

L.control.layers({
        'osm': osm.addTo(map)
        },
        {
           'drawlayer': drawnItems,
           "Hazards" : Hazards,
           "Tickets": Tickets
         },

         {
           position: 'topleft', collapsed: false
         }
         ).addTo(map);

map.addControl(new L.Control.Draw({
    edit: {
        featureGroup: Hazards,
        poly: {
            allowIntersection: false
        }
    },
    draw: {
        polygon: {
            allowIntersection: false,
            showArea: true
        },
        rectangle:false,
        circle:false,
        circlemarker:false
    }
}));

map.on(L.Draw.Event.CREATED, function (event) {
    var layer = event.layer;
    drawnItems.addLayer(layer);
});

</script>

And the loadHazards() function:

function loadHazards(){
$.ajax({
    type: 'GET',
    url:'/loadPolygonFromDatabase',
    success : function(polygons){           
        polygons = JSON.parse(polygons);

        var toAdd = [];
        for (i in polygons){

            var item = {
                    "type" : "Feature",
                    "properties":{
                        "category":"",
                        "description":"",
                        "ID":""
                     },
                     "geometry" : {
                        "type":"Polygon",
                        "coordinates":[],

                    }

            };

            item["geometry"]["coordinates"][0] = polygons[i]["coordinates"];
            item["properties"]["category"]     = polygons[i]["category"];
            item["properties"]["description"]  = polygons[i]["description"];
            item["properties"]["ID"]  = polygons[i]["ID"];
            toAdd.push(item);

        }

        //Add information to popup
        var layerGroup = L.geoJSON(toAdd, {
            onEachFeature: function (feature, layer) {
                layer.bindPopup(  '<h1>' + feature.properties.category + '</h1>'
                                + '<p>'  + feature.properties.description + '</p>');
                layer.id = feature.properties.ID;

          },
          style: function(feature){
             switch (feature.properties.category) {
                case 'Rabid_Beavers': return {color: "#663326"};
                case 'Fire':   return {color: "#ff0000"};
                case 'Flood':   return {color: "#0000ff"};
            }
          }
        }).addTo(Hazards);

    }
});
}

Thanks in advance!

As mentioned by @ghybs Leaflet.Draw doesn't support Groups or MultiPolygons. I needed the same functionality so a few years ago I created Leaflet-Geoman (previously named leaflet.pm) which supports holes, MultiPolygons, GeoJSON and LayerGroups:

Hope it helps.
