Hancock resident summonsed after alleged pot incident
A Hancock Hall resident was given a summons for possession of liquor by a minor at 5:48 p.m. Sunday. Officers responded to a report of marijuana being smoked on the second floor. Once they determined where the smell was emanating from, they knocked on the door. The resident, identified as Maxwell Poe, 19, of Orono, came into the hallway and shut the door behind him. Officers asked what was being smoked in the room. Poe denied that anything had been smoked. Officers asked if they could step inside, and Poe consented. Once inside, officers observed numerous empty containers of alcoholic beverages. Poe also admitted to having smoked marijuana earlier in the day. Poe was asked if he had any smoking paraphernalia, and he turned over a pack of rolling papers. Officers then asked if they could have permission to search the room, which Poe granted. The search produced a can of Natural Light beer, and a half-gallon of Orloff vodka. As a result, Poe was issued a summons for possession of liquor by a minor and referred to judicial affairs.
