S. Tahoe man accused of burglarizing pot club
A South Lake Tahoe man was arrested late Aug. 8 on suspicion of burglary at Patient2Patient marijuana collective.
The troubled dispensary on Highway 50 in South Lake Tahoe must close its doors by Aug. 20 because of a slew of violations. Until then the business is open and people want to get their pot without paying for it.
Leslie Decker
An alarm alerted police officers to a disturbance at the collective at 11:30pm Wednesday.
Officers said they witnessed Leslie Decker, 24, crawling out the bottom of a broken glass door. Inside this broken glass door was a cement cinder block, which appeared to have been used to break the glass, police said.
Decker’s bicycle was lying on the ground on the east side of the building. Officers said he had several tools with him, including a socket wrench, sockets, a box cutter and screwdrivers.
The dispensary was also burglarized in July.

What is it about the 8th of the month?????
South Lake Tahoe police just might be the best in the nation. Their track record at catching murderers, burglars and saving lives is exceptional. Best of all, they protect everyone, even marijuana dispensaries, without judgement or prejudice. In contrast, most other police departments are so involved with the drug war that they have failed miserably to control local crime. For example, in 1965, police solved 91 percent of murders. Even in the late 1960s, after the Miranda decision and amid significant social turmoil, the clearance rate remained above 85 percent. It has fallen steadily since the launch of the drug war, and now stands below 65 percent. Our South Lake Tahoe police deserve recognition for their extraordinary performance in solving real crimes with real victims.
You must be joking Kubby, that is a hilariously sarcastic comment ;)
Looks like the place has gone to pot – LOL!
