Teen busted for selling pot door-to-door

Brownsville, TEXAS -- A teen in Texas was busted for trying to sell pot door-to-door after knocking on a police officer's door peddling his product.

The officer told the teen he'd be right back and went and grabbed his badge and handcuffs.

Police said Carrazco was drunk.

The teen is being held on a $10,000 bond. The charges against him are serious, since he was allegedly selling the drugs by a university -- a drug-free and weapon-free zone.

Residents in the area are getting a good laugh out of the incident.

"Well it was stupid," one resident told news crews. "You're not gonna knock on doors, you know, and do that."
