| Man Nabbed for Pot-Smelling Cash Deposit STURGEON BAY, Wis. — The musty smell of a man's money led to his arrest on possible drug charges. The 21-year-old Sturgeon Bay man tried to deposit money smelling of marijuana at a bank here last week, according to a Sturgeon Bay police report obtained by the Door County Advocate. The $4,000 in bundled bills did not smell like burned marijuana but had a musty odor of ground sweet leaves, the report said. The smell was so strong and distinct that a teller put the cash in a plastic bag. Sturgeon Bay police tested it for marijuana, and it came back positive, the report said. The man was arrested when he returned to the bank to make a withdrawal. Police later found bagged marijuana at the man's home. "All the pieces just came together," Police Chief Dan Trelka said. The man is being held in the county jail on a probation violation, while the Door County district attorney's office reviews his case. It will be up to the district attorney to file formal charges.

| About ten years ago a co-worker of mine got searched at the airport in Fairbanks, AK because one of the ticket agents informed the cops that his breath smelled like dope. When they found some on him he got arrested; this was pre-911; can't imagine what it's like now. |
