"An individual came into the police department and handed in a bag of suspected narcotics found along the Joe K Loop Trail. The bag contained an unknown white powdery substance. Police recommend that residents do not pick up unknown bags that may contain drugs."
They prefer that we leave suspected drugs on the ground so that the "customer" can pick them up? Really?

Well if you pick it up ....and then get stopped by police you run the risk of being charged with possession. NO way would they believe you picked it up in the park!!

only the finest here in Havre de Grace. Maybe they were afraid they would have to get out of the car and actually run after a suspect. I've seen some of the police force...and a chase just ain't happening.

:D. I love these posts. I'm not a fan of the HdG police either. There's no point in even calling. I'm my own protection in this town. I'm resigned to it. Lord.

What a sad commentary, when HdG gets a new store (7-11) and there's drama there already! C'mon HdG! As far as drugs in a bag...I'm sure that that's not a rare thing and who would pick it up anyway, apart from a drug user? I'm not gettin' that.

Good point Brenda. What suspect would they even have? Sounds like they dealt with a bunch of bologna this week

Well mayb the HDGPD also instructed the "FINDER" to instead of picking it up,,Call them and they most likely would of sent an officer....

Good job Hollee, sounds like you're the only sensible one here. It boogles my mind that some would want to pick up a bag of drugs!
Not that I totally disagree with you Dawn, because I don't, but I've actually seen the police chase down people on foot on several occasions.
