NIAGARA FALLS-- A man ordered a take-out dinner from a Niagara Falls Boulevard diner early Saturday and tried to pay for it with a bag of marijuana, police said.The incident occurred shortly after 2a.m. at the Denny's restaurant, police said. The man ordered $9.91 worth of food and offered a cashier $1 and the pot in exchange for the meal.
Must have been stoned out of his gourd himself.
When the cashier decided that a reservation for the Gray-Bar Hotel was not a suitable exchange for food, the man tried to sell the pot to other customers in the restaurant, police said, before fleeing into a nearby wooded area when the cashier called police.
An employee at the restaurant recognized the man and gave his name to police, who said that he lives in the area of the restaurant. He was not home when officers arrived later Saturday. An investigation is continuing.
