Anthony Carrazco: Selling Pot Door-to-Door

Salesman Anthony Carrazco decided to take his product to the people the old-fashioned way --- door-to-door.

He wasn't selling vacuum cleaners or Girl Scout cookies.

He was selling pot.

BROWNSVILLE, Texas -- A 19-year-old Brownsville man is jailed on a drug charge after he allegedly went door-to-door trying to sell marijuana. A Brownsville police spokesman says Anthony Carrazco's alleged scheme went awry when he knocked on a police officer's apartment door.

Spokesman Jimmy Manrrique says the episode happened Thursday downtown near the University of Texas-Texas Southmost College campus. He says Carrazco appeared to be intoxicated and allegedly had three ounces of marijuana with him that he tried to sell door-to-door. Finally, Carrazco knocked on the off-duty police officer's door. The officer "said he would be right back and went to get his badge and handcuffs."

Manrrique says the officer, whose identity was withheld, also found a handgun hidden on the man. Carrazco remains in a Cameron County jail with bonds totaling $10,000.

Carrazco is not too bright.

Who sells pot door-to-door? DOOR-TO-DOOR?

I wonder if his "job" was counted among those allegedly saved or created under the Obama stimulus.
