Don't Poop Where You Eat--Or Something Like That
There's an old saying where I come from:
Don't build a massive illegal drug factory right behind the local police department.
Seems like you wouldn't have to tell someone this, but I guess you do.
Michael MacConnell, pictured, allegedly had 300 marijuana plants growing in his Mint Hill, NC home. His house was about 1/10th of a mile from the local police station. All cops had to do to get to the place was walk out the rear of their station and stroll past the Mint Hill Barber Shop and Realty World. They would know they'd gone too far if they wound up at the Lawyer's Glen Retirement Center.
Police sauntered over to the Lawyers Road residence yesterday after someone stopped by the station to complain that he had been assaulted there.
MacConnell, 40, faces several felony drug counts.
