LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Police say four teens stole what they thought was marijuana from a Colorado pot shop, but it was actually oregano.
According to a report from KKTV, the four smashed a stolen van right through the front of the Native Roots marijuana dispensary. The whole thing happened right in front of witnesses, who called police. Officers say the teens ran off with t-shirts and what they thought was marijuana.
"We have pre-rolled joints on display in our packaging in our display cases," said Kim Casey, communications manager for Native Roots. "We do not put actual medicated product in them, so we use oregano to simulate the cannabis."
Police say just last month, thieves drove another stolen car through the front of another pot shop. Authorities aren't saying if it's the same group of teens in both crimes.
