Case 4409: Up on the roof without roofies

Officers were dispatched to a safety hazard call regarding someone trying to get onto the roof of the Browning Center. Police found three men crossing the street on Village Drive.

They smelled like marijuana, and one admitted he had an e-cigarette containing a marijuana-based liquid. The other two said they didn’t have anything on them. All three were warned, and the e-cigarette was seized and placed into evidence to be destroyed. This was the first time the owner of the e-cig had been an issue.

Police said it’s up to the officer’s discretion on how to proceed in these cases. If the perpetrators are cooperative, they are typically not charged.
