Re: Forest Grove beer run goes bust
Wow, kudos to the clerk who had the guts to step up and do something rather than watch it happen and call the police ten or thirty minutes later. Good job to Forest Grove PD and Cornelius PD for catching Brendon and juvenile friend and taking appropriate enforcement action.
Well, Brendon and friend, was the beer worth going to prison? Oh, lemme guess, you just finished smoking a bowl and wanted a brew to top it off...
