MILLVILLE, N.J. (AP) - Maybe this is why they call it High Street.
Police confirm the odd-looking plants they pulled last week from a flower basket in Millville's business district were indeed marijuana.
The plants were discovered by a passer-by. Police responded to the scene with a ladder and confiscated the 3-foot-tall plants, which were growing in a basket hanging from a lamp post.
The city's parks and recreation department, which tends to the baskets, says it has no idea how the pot plants got there.
No arrests have been made yet.
