Teen Tries To Sell Pot To Sheriff Twice, Gets Arrested
POSTED: 10:14 a.m. EDT May 21, 2003
NAY-TAH-WAUSH, Minn. -- If you're going to sell marijuana, you probably shouldn't try to sell it to the sheriff.
Mahnomen County Sheriff Brad Athman said Tuesday he was motorcycling while off-duty over the weekend when a youth tried to sell him marijuana -- not once, but twice -- on the main street of Nay-Tah-Waush in northwestern Minnesota.
Athman said the youth tried to wave him over twice, and signaled that he had marijuana for sale by placing his thumb and fingers to his mouth in a smoking gesture.
Athman said he had a full-face helmet on, so he was unrecognizable.
The sheriff said he called a deputy who arrested the 17-year-old, and that the teen had 11 marijuana cigarettes in his pocket.
Athman said the teen became "very upset" when he discovered he had tried to sell drugs to the sheriff.
The youth appeared in court Tuesday on a felony charge of attempted sale of a controlled substance. He remained in custody in the juvenile detention center in Moorhead pending his next court appearance. Prosecutors plan to seek to charge him as an adult.
