South Texas man busted after reporting pot theft


McALLEN, Texas — A man was arrested for drug possession after telling authorities that two masked gunmen had stolen 150 pounds of marijuana from his home.

Hidalgo County sheriff's deputies arrived at the home near Penitas in South Texas to find the door kicked in and nearly 15 pounds of pot lying on the floor, Sheriff Lupe Trevino said.

Jose Guadalupe Flores, 35, escaped while the men ransacked the house but returned later and told the deputies he had been wrapping the drugs for shipment when the intruders arrived.

"The guy walked right up and said the drugs were his," Trevino said. "That's not the smartest move."

Flores, an illegal immigrant from Mexico, was charged with felony possession of marijuana at an arraignment hearing Monday. Because of his immigration status, Flores will be jailed until his case is heard.

Authorities were still searching for the gunmen.

Whoah, Dude, it's a good thing those guys didn't take those ten sheets of blotter acid I hid under the sink.

A lot of chronics smoke themselves into a state where they kinda forget that the shit is illegal.

Italian people call everything from weed to heroin, dope. So you never know what someone is taking when you talk to them, all they say is Babana (sp?) which means dope in slang Italian.
