Small Town Misfit

Atlanta, GA
In midtown, two men got into a fight over a dog. Police responded and tried to sort out the dogfight between two men, who don’t live together. Here are the two men’s stories:

A 42-year-old man said he owns the dog, but he wanted to take the dog away from a 53-year-old man’s home on Penn Avenue. He also said he keeps some clothes there. But, he said, when he arrived at the 53-year-old man’s house, he saw that his clothes were on fire. He said the 53-year-old man rushed toward him and hit him with a shovel, so he left and went to the hospital.

The 53-year-old man’s story: He said he and the 42-year-old are friends, but the 42-year-old doesn’t take care of the dog. He said the 42-year-old uses him for money, and when he doesn’t give him money, he wants the dog back. The 53-year-old said he loves the dog. He was charged with aggravated assault and went to jail.

Don’t smoke pot in front of a building under investigation for illegal drug activities. On June 18, while police were conducting an undercover surveillance mission of a Colleton Street apartment building, an officer noticed two people apparently smoking marijuana, toking on a joint in plain view of the public. A third person was hanging out with the bud smokers but not indulging in the Mary Jane.

The cops approached and said they were investigating illegal drug activity. The smokers then called one of the officers by name and said, “We aren’t selling drugs. Now we are smoking weed, we are not going to lie about that but that’s all we are doing.” The police attempted to locate the joint but had no luck and questioned the three about it. Perhaps victims of pot smokers’ memory loss, they told the police they did not recall what happened to it. All three were arrested and charged with loitering for narcotics.
