911 call by an Austintown Township man who complained he was “too high” after smoking marijuana.

AUSTINTOWN — Township police were called to a home Friday night by a man who complained he was “too high” after smoking marijuana.

According to a police report, authorities were called to the 100 block of Westminister Avenue at about 5:20 p.m. Friday by a 22-year old male who had smoked the drug. The officer who responded to the home could hear the man groaning from a room.

The officer then found the man lying “on the floor in the fetal position” and “was surrounded by a plethora of Doritos, Pepperidge Farm Goldfish and Chips Ahoy cookies,” the report said. The man also told police he couldn’t feel his hands.

A glass pipe with marijuana residue, two packs of rolling papers, two roaches and a glass jar of marijuana were recovered from the man’s car after he gave the keys to police. The man declined medical treatment at the home Friday night.

Austintown police have not charged the man in the incident as of late Monday morning.
