Police say a western Pennsylvania stole a kind of “fake” marijuana while using a fake $1 million bill.Police in Sharpsville on Monday charged 23-year-old Joseph Lombardi with trying to buy a bag of herbal potpourri called “Space Cadet Flight Risk” using the bogus bill at a Food Mart store. The Sharon Herald reports the substance is sold as incense but mimics the effect of marijuana when smoked, which is why the ersatz pot is included in a bill outlawing such substances that Gov. Tom Corbett signed into law last week. The ban takes effect in August.
Police have charged Lombardi with theft by deception and retail theft because they say he took the herbs and ran after putting the bogus bill on the counter.
Online court records don’t list an attorney for Lombardi, who doesn’t have a listed phone.
