BOY, 9, IS ACCUSED IN POT SALE
Villisca, Iowa - A 9-year-old Villisca boy is in protective custody
after police arrested him for selling marijuana to three
14-year-olds.
The boy, whose name has not been released because of his age, took the
marijuana from his father, said Villisca Police Chief Butch Rulla. The
father was not charged with drug possession but could face charges
after the Iowa Human Services Department holds a hearing on the case
next month, Rulla said.
"I'm hoping we can get some rehabilitation and turn this kid around,"
Rulla said. "Nobody's talking about throwing away the key."
