Teen 'sold drugs to officers with 'police' on jackets'
A Connecticut teenager has been arrested while trying to sell drugs to police officers with the word 'Police' on their jackets.
A police spokesman said drugs officers were on a routine patrol in Stamford in an unmarked car when Davaugn Goethe, 17, waved them down.
He said Goethe opened the back door of the car, jumped in and asked the officers what they wanted and how much. The spokesman said Goethe even told the two occupants 'You guys look like cops'.
He said the officers were wearing raid jackets because they were looking for fugitives and didn't want to be mistaken for anything but police officers.
As officers grabbed Goethe in the back of their car, they say he appeared to swallow the drugs - which have not yet been recovered.
Goethe, who should have been in school at the time of the incident, is due to appear in court on March 23, says The Advocate.
