Cops Can't Handle The Smell of Marijuana, Call For Action Before Someone Gets Hurt

Cops in one Florida city claim there are health risks from the odor of marijuana they have stored in their evidence room. Notice I said "odor" of marijuana.

"The biggest complaint is how strong the odor is," said Atlantic Beach Police Commander Victor Gualillo, reports ActionNewsJax.com.
