FL: Police Called Over Suspicious Briefcase. What Was Inside Could Be Worth $51,000

[Ron Strider]

A salesman, it seems, left his briefcase at The Avant apartment community in Pembroke Pines Thursday. Pembroke Pines police have the briefcase and invite the owner to claim it -- all of it.

The briefcase and the 10.75 pounds of marijuana inside, carefully packed into seven sealed packages.

Maintenance crews found the briefcase at The Avant, formerly known as The Arium Resort, and called police about the strange package. When officers Jon Cusack and Peterson Jacques responded and opened the briefcase, they didn't find a bomb, but bud.

Lots of bud.

Somebody's going to have some explaining to do. As there's no record of Snoop Dogg taking up residence at The Avant, 10.75 pounds of marijuana probably isn't purely for someone's personal use, especially arranged in such a way. According to Priceofweed.com, a site that crowdsources marijuana prices, the briefcase owner left behind $28,605.32 to $51,436.60 of marijuana, depending on the quality of product.

Sounds like a dropoff gone wrong. I once saw a lady take a lockbox from inside of a park trash can.

Is this real? I mean... Who'd send that lard-@ss walrus out on an actual call? If he had to run after a suspect, he'd be dead after the first five feet of heart failure (or embarrassment). For that matter, most folks could probably clear two fences and the block between them while he was struggling to take his cruiser off I mean get out of his cruiser.

If it IS for real, I'm guessing that briefcase actually had 11 pounds in it, but he was starting to struggle with that long arduous trek from the front door to the bar, and was looking for other options.

LOL at the Pines Police Department running one of Microsoft's operating systems. No wonder the crooks know what the cops are doing 99 times out of 100.

I often wonder how much money or what kind of drug/s were in that case.
She just walked back to her black beamer with the case and left, she may have said something to us, I was young.
