Funny...
LEBANON, Pa. -- Police in central Pennsylvania say they've nabbed a real pot head.
Twenty-nine-year-old Cesar Lopez is charged with drug possession after police say an officer saw him with a bag of marijuana stuck to his forehead.
Investigators say an officer saw Lopez looking at the inside of his baseball cap in a convenience store early Saturday morning in Lebanon, about 75 miles northwest of Philadelphia. When Lopez looked up, the officer spotted a small plastic bag appearing to contain marijuana stuck to his forehead.
Police say the officer peeled the bag off Lopez's forehead and placed him under arrest.
Here's the account of Lopez's story by Peter Mucha, the Philadelphia Inquirer:
The case gives new meaning to the term pothead.
Or dope.
Cesar Lopez, 29, was in a Lebanon, Pa., convenience store early Saturday morning, staring at the inside of his baseball cap.
What he was probably looking for wasn't there - because it was stuck to his forehead, according to police.
A police officer who happened to be in the store plucked a small clear-plastic bag of what appeared to be marijuana from above Lopez's brow.
He was charged with possession of a small amount of marijuana and released.
The bag had probably been tucked inside the sweatband of the cap - a common place for concealing drugs and paraphernalia - before it became dislodged, according to Daniel Wright, chief of police in the Lebanon County town about 25 miles north of Lancaster.
I wonder if the police officer was able to keep from laughing.
