A resident of Sky View Apartments, 1050 E. Eighth St., was arrested for possession of marijuana at 12:33 a.m. Friday.
Police responded to the apartment complex on reports of the smell of burnt marijuana emanating from a room on the third floor. Police contacted the two residents of the room and asked them if they smoked. One of the men said, “”Yes, I have cigarettes in my room,”” according to reports.
The officers informed the residents about the smell of marijuana coming from their room. The men gave the officers permission to search the room. When asked if he had smoked marijuana that day the first man said, “”I may have smoked sometime today, but not in here,”” according to reports.
The other officer showed the investigating officer a blunt and ashes inside a solar panel project belonging to one of the residents.
Further investigation yielded two packs of rolling papers, a paper towel roll stuffed with toilet paper (used as a smoking filter), and a loose green leafy substance on one of the desks.
A red cup with green leafy residue was found in a trash can and a fresh bud was on the desk. The officers told the residents what was found and the first resident said, “”That’s all mine, he has nothing to do with this,”” and added, “”This is my stuff and I ashed in the solar panel,”” according to reports.
The substances tested positive for marijuana and the man responsible was cited and released at the apartments.
