Boastful marijuana farmer brags to undercover cop
CANTON, Ohio (AP) _ A man who allegedly boasted to a passer-by while carrying a marijuana plant down the street ended up getting arrested by the man _ a plainclothes police officer.
"Would you believe I'm walking down the street in the middle of the day with this pot plant," Daniel Fornash of Canton said as he walked down the street Thursday, according to police.
The passer-by responded, "Would you believe I'm a cop?"
Canton Detective Joe Mongold, who was returning from court, cited Fornash with misdemeanor charges of cultivation and possession of marijuana.
Authorities said Fornash told police the marijuana had been growing in the front yard of a vacant house, where he had been nurturing it, and that he decided to dig it up and take it home.
