Bear chase leads to pot bust

Bear chase leads to pot bust

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

CLARKSTON, Wash. -- Two people were arrested after police chasing a runaway black bear stumbled into a backyard pot-growing operation.

Kim H. Bedwell, 52, and Gladys P. Bedwell, 50, both face charges of manufacturing marijuana and possession of marijuana with intent to deliver.

On Wednesday, Asotin County Superior Judge Ray D. Lutes set bail of $250,000 for Kim Bedwell and $100,000 for Gladys Bedwell. They were being held at the Asotin County Jail.

According to police reports, a black bear being chased by law enforcement officers jumped a fence Tuesday afternoon and landed in the Bedwells' backyard.

During the commotion, Kim Bedwell allegedly tried to stash some marijuana plants under a vehicle in his garage, according to the report.

After he was spotted by police and told to stop, he allegedly ran out of his garage and tossed a plant over a fence.

Clarkston police officer Scott Wohl was pursuing the bear when a large marijuana plant sailed over the fence and landed on him, police said. Deputies jumped the fence and arrested Kim Bedwell, according to the report.

Officers searched the Bedwell home and found four bags of marijuana in a refrigerator in the garage, and a grow room, according to the report. Inside the residence, police found two bags of marijuana in the refrigerator.

The 300-pound black bear was later captured and killed.

Fucking stupid police...I rarely say that, but damn, these guys fit the mold. Who the hell authorizes pursuing a bear on foot with no non-lethal weapons. Poor bear. Hopefully the couple has a good lawyer.

The tragedy here is definitely the bear, not the pot.

That's majorly fucked up. One would hope they would be content to simply capture the bear. But they captured it THEN they killed it! That cruel. If the bear was an imminent threat to their lives, that's one thing, but they executed that poor bear in cold blood.

Hmm..let's see - which is more dangerous; a middle aged couple growing a few plants or a scared, cornered black bear? Someone's sure got their priorities messed up, although it was a shame they had to shoot the bear....

So two 50 something year olds got busted thanks to nosy cops and a bear was killed along the way. My hats off to you police, I may now sleep soundly.
