He Got Weed! He Got Weed!!

A Newark father's attempt to teach his daughter a lesson about alcohol backfired when the teen led cops to a stash of drugs and illegal weapons inside his house.

    The incident began at 2:45 a.m. Friday when the unnamed 16-year-old came home drunk and unruly.

Her dad, Kevin Winston, called police, but when they arrived, the girl told police she feared for herself and her four sisters, aged 3 through 15, because her father stored drugs and weapons there. Cops arrested Winston after finding four semiautomatic guns, including an AK-47, plus 617 vials of cocaine.

She probably feels kinda bad about it now, but hey--she was drunk! He should have listened to Chris Rock.

  • Confused by our comment policy?

    We're testing a strong CC license as a form of troll repellant. Does that sound strange? Read this thread. (I know, it's long. Keep scrolling. Further. Further. Ah, there.) So basically, we figure trolls will recognize that selling coffee cups and t-shirts is the best revenge, and will keep away. If we're wrong about that, at least someone can still sell the cups and shirts. (Sigh.)
