The Victoria Police Department is seeking drug trafficking
charges against three people following a Thursday search of
Ted’s Books at 826 Johnson St.
Police went to the store after receiving a complaint that
marijuna was being displayed in plain view, Sgt. Darren Laur
said in a news release. A staff member was cutting up marijuana
when police arrived, Laur said.
The store owner made himself known to police and consented to a
search of the premises, Laur said. Marijuana, marijuana byproducts
and documentation were seized.
“Although the owner of Ted’s Books stated to police that he
sells the marijuana seized for medical purposes, his business
is not licensed by the federal government to carry out such
transactions.”
