Stupid Files: Man Calls Police to Check “Nasty Marijuana”

By Ron Crumpton

Believing that he had been sold bad marijuana, a Uniontown, Pennsylvania man promptly called the police to investigate.

Now, just about all marijuana smokers, at one time or another, have purchased a bag of bunk, but when they do, they generally take the loss and chalk it up to experience. However, that is not always the case.

On Wednesday, an unidentified 21-year-old man stunned a Fayette County 911 dispatcher when he called to report that he had purchased some questionable marijuana.

Upon arriving at the Millview Street residence, officers noticed a leafy green substance lying on the couch. The young man said that he had just purchased the marijuana, but when he smoked it, it tasted nasty.

                                                  

According to Detective Donald Gmitter, a field test showed that the substance was not marijuana, or any other controlled substance.

"We have received calls in the past that have astounded us,” Gmitter said. “We have had calls before of people giving money to prostitutes for services. When the prostitute ran off, they wanted to report a robbery or theft. They thought was legitimate."

To add insult to injury, not only did the guy get ripped-off on his marijuana purchase. According to Sgt. Wayne Brown, the man was charged with possession of a counterfeit substance.

You cannot blame this entry into the Stupid Files on marijuana because apparently the dude did not have any. He must come by his stupidity… naturally.
