Drug Dealer Calls Cops For Help

From the Advocate:

HAMMOND — Deputies arrested a Hammond man Friday after he allegedly called to report that someone stole the drugs he was selling, the Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff’s Office reported.

Cedrick Riley Sr., 23, 42336 E. Pleasant Hill Road Extension, told deputies that he was trying to sell drugs when his would-be customers hit him across the head with a gun, tied him up and robbed him of his illicit merchandise near a gas station on University Avenue and Puma Drive in Hammond, said a statement from the Sheriff’s Office.


The sheriff's office found two outstanding warrants against Riley. Tough luck.

Note to Cedrick: Next time suck it up.

  2. I can't work out what kind of help Riley thought the cops would give him. You're right. He must have been on his own stuff.

  3. Most low-level (street) dealers are users; muddled thinking goes with the occupation. Nonetheless, it demonstrates considerable chutzpah to ask the cops to recover his wares.
