Everyone is smoking reefer in the North Metro

This time in the North Metro, the police blotter is all about reefer madness and burglary—including breaking into somebody’s house and eating all their Dilly bars:

Fridley: “Someone called police to complain about an odor of marijuana in an apartment unit at Morrow Apartments, 5430 7th St. NE. Officers contacted the renter and she denied using the drug. Officers told her they could smell marijuana.”

Mounds View: “Police responded to a call about a disoriented person in the hallway of an apartment building in the 7100 block of Silver Lake Road. Police located the suspect, an 18-year-old Mounds View man, and cited him for possession of a small amount of marijuana.”

According to the criminal complaint, the homeowner went to bed and woke up to find an unknown man sleeping on the couch. The front door had been kicked in, and the suspect had eaten bread, sausage and a box of ice cream bars. The suspect said he had been dropped off there by a friend sometime in the early morning hours, entered the home and fell asleep on the couch. The suspect admitted that he did not know the homeowner. The 28-year-old St. Francis man was arrested for first-degree burglary.”
