Some Pothead Donates Old Clothes, 111 Grams of Pot
The donation in question.   (Maplewood Police Department)

A suburban Minneapolis police department has good news for the person who donated dozens of plastic baggies of marijuana along with their kid's old clothes: It's safe and sound and ready to be picked up at the station, reports the AP. The Maplewood Police Department posted a photo on Facebook of the surprise donation to the Once Upon a Child store, but the Argus Leader reports that it couldn't quite keep a straight face about it. The post:

  • "If you accidentally donated 111 grams of marijuana along with your clothing earlier to a local store please come to the PD so we can reunite you! We know you spent a lot of time dividing them into these perfectly measured baggies & must be missing them."
  • And in its tweet on the subject: "Hey genius, Once Upon A Child thanks you for the clothing donation, but you forgot something in your pant pockets... sucks to be you..."
Perhaps unsurprisingly, no one has come forward yet. (More marijuana stories.)
