THREE STRANGE DAYS: A 19-year-old woman told a MARTA police officer that a man stole her purse, and that now he was walking down Forsyth Avenue. So the MARTA police officer tracked down the man, age 20, who still had the black purse. He was just about to put the handcuffs on when the man took off running. An Atlanta police officer caught the man a few blocks away. Then the man told police that the woman's purse contained marijuana. The officer asked the woman: "Can I search your purse?" "Yes," she said. Inside, police found 18 baggies of suspected marijuana, plus four sandwich-sized bags of suspected marijuana. The man and woman said they'd known each other for at least three days. The woman said the man is upset because she wants to end their relationship. Both went to jail.
This is not big news. In fact, I'm willing to bet this sort of thing is a daily occurrence somewhere on MARTA. Thankfully at least some of it gets reported on.
