Man arrested after trying to pay for McDonald's with bag of weed

A 23-year-old man has been arrested after he allegedly tried to pay for his McDonald’s order with a bag of marijuana.

Anthony Andrew Gallagher reportedly pulled up at the the drive-through window of the fast food outlet in Florida, US, and offered the staff member a bag of weed in exchange for his meal, but his trade was denied.

The employee then called Port St Lucie Police and gave officers a description of the driver, before a suspect matching his description came through a second time a little while later.

Police approached Gallagher and arrested him Sunday on charges of marijuana possession and driving under the influence.

It is unclear if Gallagher attempted to pay for his order with drugs the second time. It’s also unclear if he has a lawyer.
