Rats High on Marijuana Cause Chaos at New Orleans Police HQ
Rats at the aging New Orleans police headquarters have been feasting on confiscated marijuana, leading to a comical situation where "they're all high," according to Police Superintendent Anne Kirkpatrick. The building is also plagued by mold, cockroaches, and broken facilities, creating demoralizing conditions for officers. City officials are considering a $7.6 million proposal to temporarily relocate the police headquarters to a high-rise building downtown while plans for a new permanent headquarters are developed.
