New Orleans superintendent tells council committee that rodents have infested the building and requests to move headquarters

Cops in New Orleans are on the tail of a brazen gang of narcotics traffickers who broke into the evidence room at police headquarters and pilfered all the pot: a swarm of rodents with a hankering for the high life.

“The rats are eating our marijuana. They’re all high,” Anne Kirkpatrick, superintendent of the city’s police department, told a council committee meeting on Monday.

The chief’s ratting out of the prime suspects was part of her pitch to councilors to fund a move for her officers into new premises in the Big Easy’s downtown, according to Nola.com.

    My conspiratorial mind thinks the cops are just making up an excuse to get a brand new multi-million dollar station funded by the taxpayers they couldn’t give a shit about.

    And btw, just think of how all that money could be better used to build geared-to-income housing for the thousands of people living in squalor where the rats eat up their food sources.
