Rep Power: 2317 | | Ice Cream Truck Sells $5 & $10 Bags Of Marijuana To Kids, marijuana treats
Marijuana "treats" sold by ice cream truck in Texas? Police say the jingle of this particular ice cream truck signaled the arrival of "pot-sickles."
Elementary school students reportedly tipped Police off to an ice cream truck driver who was selling nickel ($5) and dime ($10) bags of marijuana from the truck. The majority of the customers were in the third, fourth, and fifth grades.
"It's a scary thought, but that's the info we received," Mission police Chief Leo Longoria said, according to the AP.
Police arrested a 40-year-old illegal immigrant from Mexico named Raymundo Flores. He was charged with possession of marijuana. A judge set bond at $30,000 and he was transported to Hidalgo County jail after.
Flores' case will more than likely be turned over to federal immigration officials, Assistant Police Chief Robert Dominguez told the AP.
While police didn't witness any sales, a drug sniffing dog was utilized to help them find baggies of marijuana along with the more traditional frozen treats.
News video also shows the driver engaging in some subtle advertising. While the outside of the truck has pictures of ice cream, pendants in the shape of marijuana leaves hung inside the truck.

Damn.
I over looked the selling to those kids.
That is way way way to young.
I do not think they should even be around it until atleast 18.
Then it should be there choice once educated about it.

Do you actually think tha's the case? HaHa...
You've gotta go to the ghetto a couple towns from my house...
Scumbags like that will prey off ANYONE who will buy their schwag, just to support their coke habbits.
Those people are so full of greed, they'd sell to toddlers if they had the money...
You ever seen the poor? 'Round my area, they'd sell their own children for drugs/alcohol...

I don't mean to be a downer to that post, but we must see things on two completely sides of the spectrum.
Oh yeah, that town I was talkin' about... I've actually seen one of those ice cream trucks... It was ringin' its bells at Midnight down the street... I don't know about your area, but most of the 5-10 yr. olds are in bed minimally by around 10, but their parents couldn't give a shit if they were out until 2am the next mornin'.

There was a movie in the middle 60s called
Marry Jane, it had Fabian in it, i will never forget that movie, it was so bad.
But it was funny though.
Same story, a guy selling pot out of an ice cream truck.
Anyone remember how bad it was? |

| | | When I was a teenager we had 2 icecream trucks come around.One would come early say about 5-6 o'clock and the other at about 10-11 o'clock.The one that would come later we would all go hang out around him because he was selling more than icecream . |

I agree with you mann. I live in the Ghetto but this stuff doesnt happen here, not to kids that young, like was said above, its for the bigger kids who ask for it.
