Double Parked Dummy

PHILADELPHIA - It's not a good idea to have a lot of marijuana in a car if it's double-parked. Police in West Philadelphia stopped to question a woman who was double-parked without her car's hazard lights on early Wednesday morning.

As the officers spoke with the woman, a male passenger fled from the vehicle on foot. He got away, and police said an officer suffered minor injuries chasing him.

Police continued to question the woman who, they said, appeared to be under the influence. She handed over an expired license and was taken into custody.

Police said a subsequent search of the car by a K-9 unit turned up nearly 60 pounds of marijuana.

Weed-N-Seed Tacos

LAKEWOOD, Colo. (AP) - A Colorado couple found an unusual topping on their order of tacos: a small bag of marijuana.

They discovered the drugs with their order from a Del Taco restaurant and called police, said Lakewood police spokesman Steve Davis.

Twenty-six-year-old Dennis Klermund, who police say waited on the husband when he picked up food Oct. 16, faces charges of possession of marijuana and drug paraphernalia.

Klermund initially denied any knowledge but admitted the bag was meant for a friend after a search dog found more marijuana in a locker, police said.

Klermund no longer works at the restaurant, said manager Ulises Montero. A message left for Klermund was not returned.
