A Polish woman from the town of Lobez has been arrested and charged for growing marijuana. Now that’s not really that strange but the reason that she gave is rather unusual.

After having the marijuana mixed with it’s feed it became ”calm as lamb” according to the 65 year old woman. Best! Excuse! Ever!
