Claimed he bought marijuana to make compost

Police in Iowa City, Iowa caught a man with a large quantity of marijuana.

But the 30-year- old man explained. He told police that he planned to turn several large bags of marijuana into compost and that all he had in mind was recycling.

Officers didn't buy the compost story. The suspect remained in jail Sunday without posting $14,000 bail on a charge of possessing marijuana with intent to distribute.
