It may be the season of giving — but even Santa might draw the line at this. Police in California said they found a Christmas display near a high school giving away jars of marijuana.
The display, which was set up next to an existing sign advertising the local high school's Christmas tree sale, included a cardboard sign that read "Merry Christmas! Free Weed! Organic and Cage Free."
According to a social media post from the Auburn Police Department, there were 29 jars of marijuana next to the sign.

A resident notified police about the display, and officers said it was disposed of responsibly.
"The holidays can be stressful. We get it. But leaving a box of “free” marijuana on the sidewalk is not how you spread cheer to the neighborhood," said the police department on social media. "Surprises are for stockings, not sidewalks."
