Drug Donor? Bag of pot found in pants given Salvation Army

SUGARCREEK, Pa. - Don't tell me the Salvation Army is going to pot, too!

Police in Sugarcreek Borough in northwest Pennsylvania say they were called when workers at the charity found a large plastic bag full of marijuana among some donated clothes.

Police Chief Matt Carlson tells The (Oil City) Derrick  he suspects the owner of the drugs has noticed they're missing by now, if only because the bag contained a "substantial quantity" of pot.

Police were working with employees at the Salvation Army store to determine who donated the clothes and when.

The chief says it's not the first time officers have investigated an unusual item among donated clothing, saying, "we've had guns ... cash ... rings, and now marijuana."
