LaPORTE, Ind. -- Nobody noticed until an anonymous caller pointed it out to police -- a 3-foot-tall marijuana plant growing in a brick planter on a sidewalk in downtown LaPorte, Ind.
An officer pulled out the plant Monday night, took it to the police station and destroyed it.
The police chief suspects someone planted the marijuana on purpose, but he has no idea who might have done it.
There are 130 decorative planters scattered around downtown LaPorte, about 25 miles west of South Bend. They're maintained by volunteers from the local Business Improvement District.
District President Dave Sanderson said he's not surprised that nobody noticed the marijuana. He said he wouldn't know a marijuana plant from a dandelion.
