This is the unfortunate result when you’re ‘ridin’ dirty’ with illegal drugs. Are we still saying ‘ridin’ dirty’ ?
Anyhoo… An Ohio State Patrol officer, Charles Hoskin, pulled over a vehicle and because the driver was holding a bag of weed, he panicked and decided instead of taking the illegal marijuana pop, he would do the next best, sensible, thing and swallow the weed – bag and all.
And that’s where things got serious.
When Trooper Hoskin approached the car, he noticed the driver (having just ingested a sandwich bad of weed in one gulp) was in distress. The scene played out in the Twitter video below shared by the Ohio State Patrol.
Hoskin gave the driver the Heimlich and saved his life.
Ohio State Patrol Issued a Warning on Twitter:
Don’t try to swallow a bag of drugs prior to getting pulled over in an attempt to keep a trooper from finding them. Luckily, Tpr. Hoskin from our Ravenna Post was alert and able to assist the man who was choking on a bag of illegal marijuana.
And as Trooper Hoskin said, “It’s a minor misdemeanor. Do you want to die over a minor misdemeanor?”
Answer: No. You do not.
