DURANT, OK -- A 23-year-old man is accused of eating marijuana to hide it from the cops. That's what Durant police say 23-year-old Tony Pelayo did early Sunday morning.

Durant police were called to the Shady Brook Apartments on North 7th Street for a loud party. When officers arrived, they say they found two marijuana joints, which Pelayo quickly took. When asked by officers to hand them over, Pelayo said he couldn't because he ate the evidence. He then proceeded to show police a leafy green smile.

Pelayo was arrested for destroying evidence.
