DULUTH, Minn. (UPI) -- The first marijuana plants found growing in
Duluth, Minn., in about 10 years were thriving in public view -- in a
planter outside a police station.

A reporter for the Duluth News Tribune heard talk during the weekend
about "something interesting" growing outside the West Duluth police
substation, the newspaper reported Tuesday.

Unaware of what was so "interesting" about the dozen or so 6-inch high
plants in the planter outside the front door of the station, Janna
Goerdt plucked a leaf and took it back to the newspaper office with
her.

Duluth City Gardener Tom Kasper confirmed the "weed" was marijuana
Monday and took the news to police Lt. John Beyer, who said the plants
went unnoticed because nobody ever uses the front entrance of the
station, which is usually kept locked.

"The only thing I can say is somebody has a sense of humor," Beyer
said.

Kasper said it's been about 10 years since marijuana has been found
growing in the northern Minnesota.

In 1990, a 3-foot-tall marijuana plant was found thriving in the Civic
Center courtyard near City Hall.

Couldn't get a doughnut tree to grow; no matter which type they planted!

That's GREAT PR for the police department.
"Closed to the public".
