Cops Find Man's Weed in a Mason Jar: The Blotter

Mason jars aren't just for beer anymore.

On April 25 stopped a car on Cannon Road for speeding.

During the stop officers smelled what they believed to be "raw marijuana" coming from the car. The driver didn't come forward with anything, so officers did a quick search.

That's when they found a glass mason jar filled with marijuana inside a computer bag and a glass smoking pipe filled with marijuana on the passenger seat.

The man was charged with possession of marijuana, drug paraphernalia and speeding.
