Undercover DEA Agent Mistaken For Robber

(CBS) LOS ANGELES An undercover Drug Enforcement Administration agent was blocked from leaving a marijuana facility because he had a gun and employees thought he was a robber, medical marijuana advocates said Saturday.

On Wednesday, an undercover DEA agent entered the Trichome Healing Center at 7100 Van Nuys Blvd., near Sherman Way, and was prevented from leaving until additional agents came to his rescue, a DEA official said.

The DEA agent was wearing a wire during a surveillance operation shortly before 2 p.m, and the DEA officials listening outside believed the undercover agent's identity had been compromised and that he was in danger, so they rushed inside.

Patient advocate Brett Stone said that Trichome employees believed the agent was there to rob the facility.

No arrests were made.

Lmao oops.

that's all the story entailed, lovely. And since when is it legal for an undercover agent to just browse around in a legitimate business? granted it is not legitimate in the eyes of the FEDS but what the fuck, what makes them think they can just go around doing that kind of shit? Of course they thought he was a robber...lucky bastard is lucky he didn't get shot dead, if he were in many other places he would have.

He should have been shot. Think about it, someone comes to a semi-legal drug store with a gun??
I'm pretty sure they prolly could have gotten away with shootin' the leo in the leg.

I doubt the owners would be allowed to own a firearm or even want to risk owning one. Cause if they ever did get raided which happens sometimes I'm pretty sure the firearms would just make it worse. Firearms + drugs + court = jail time^2
