Teacher at Rock Hill school said student smelled like pot; police made arrest

A juvenile was charged with drug possession Tuesday at a school in Rock Hill after a teacher told a school resource officer the student “smelled like marijuana.”

Around 8:30 a.m. Tuesday the teacher at Northwestern High School called police, who found a marijuana “blunt” inside a medicine bottle in the male student’s pocket, a police report shows.

The student was arrested and released to the custody of a family member, police said.

The name and age of the student was not released because of his age.
