US man complains to cops about 'nasty' marijuana

Melbourne, Oct 26 (ANI): A US man is being investigated after complaining to police about the marijuana he had bought, which turned out to be something other than pot.

Cops say the man told officers he bought the substance earlier that day and that "it was nasty" when he smoked it.

Uniontown Detective Donald Gmitter says a field test determined the substance wasn't pot at all, but police didn't say what it was, reports News.com.au.

Even though the 21-year-old man didn't technically buy marijuana, he isn't off the hook.

Sgt Wayne Brown tells the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review that this incident remains under investigation, and the man could face a charge of possessing a counterfeit controlled substance. (ANI)
