Sending SMS about marijuana to wrong number leads to teenager arrest

A text message sent to the wrong number by mistake lands a teenager in jail, reports KOTV via digg.

"Officer Phillip Short received a text message on his personal cell phone Thursday night regarding marijuana and decided to play along, setting up a meeting to do the drugs.

18 year old Elizabeth Burchfield says she got Officer Short's number by mistake and thought she was messaging one of her friends.

Officer Short caught up with her, pulled her over for a traffic violation, found drugs in her purse, and arrested her."
