It's not at all uncommon for police officers to find drugs on suspects and arrest them for it. But here are two recent stories of arrests involving marijuana possession at an apartment that you don't read about every day.
Today, apartment roommates in Wichita, Kansas called the police to report that robbers were making off with their marijuana. After the police apprehended the robbers and found the drugs in question, they proceeded to arrest the tenants, who now face charges of possession and intent to sell within 1,000 feet of a school, according to UPI.com.
On November 6, a landlord in Cambria, New York was arraigned on charges of second-degree criminal possession of marijuana and unlawfully growing cannabis, and a tenant has been indicted on the same charges. But, as The Buffalo News reported, the police only discovered the drug and indoor plants because of a 911 call about a man with a gun, which turned out to be false.
