Marijuana: the police would like to sell you some
In a triumph of covert police work, undercover officers in North Carolina arrested another undercover officer from a different force after buying drugs off him.
The entirely drug dealer-free drug deal occurred when undercover officers from the Statesville Police Department met a man interested in selling them some marijuana. The man was an undercover deputy from Iredell County Sheriff's Office.
The Statesville officers apparently became suspicious that the drug-dealer was, in fact, an undercover deputy - so they rang the narcotics unit of the sheriff's office to check. They were told that the dealer was definitely not an undercover deputy.
They promptly arrested the man, before officers from the sheriff's office arrived and confirmed that the man was, in fact, and undercover deputy. He was then released.
Everyone has a bad day now and then...
