Deer & Marjuana – It's What's For Dinner

By Stephen Greenwell from Narragansett-South Kingstown Patch

Deer and marijuana – it’s what’s for dinner.

A possible “deer jacker,” which is not nearly as dirty as it sounds, was arrested by North Kingstown police and charged with drunken driving. Police said that the Coventry resident had accidentally driven his car into a ditch, and a search revealed 10 shotgun shells and a handheld flashlight.

Police believed that the man was “deer jacking” at one point – shining the flashlight at the deer to blind them, then shooting them.

A shotgun was found nearby, outside the man’s car, and he was charged with drunken driving. Police also noted that during his arrest, the man attempted to eat a small bag of marijuana on his person to conceal it from police.

Special delivery! Here’s your marijuana!

Pro-tip: Don’t send marijuana through the mail.

He LITERALLY tried to throw his roommate out.

A North Kingstown man was arrested and charged with domestic offenses after he assaulted his roommate. According to police, the man was tired of the roommate living with him, and told him that he better get used to carrying his own luggage while on vacation in Nantucket. 

You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch.
