Shopping Under the Influence
A 27-year-old Belgian was almost jailed for smuggling marijuana into Brussels after visiting Amsterdam. However, the police released him shortly after picking him up.
The man admitted that he'd been smoking marijuana in a coffee shop and had bought £140 worth of the drug to take home.He was handed over to Belgian police who took him to a police station to Antwerp but then found his marijuana was cabbage.
A police spokesman said: "He was quite mad about it. We've set the man free, because it's not prohibited to bring cabbage over the border.
"Probably the man had smoked so much in Holland, that he didn't realise he'd been swindled."
