Two cited for marijuana possession

An investigation into a 911 hang-up led to two men being cited for marijuana possession on Friday, Fremont Police reported.

Lt. Jeff Elliott said officers went to an apartment building at 824 W. 11th St. because of a hang-up on a 911 call. They determined a child had accidentally dialed the emergency number.

While in the commons area of the building, officers noticed a strong smell of marijuana coming from a different apartment.

After making contact with the residents in that apartment, officers cited Peter Vaughan, 19, and Patrick Tiegs, 24, both of Fremont, for possession of marijuana, less than an ounce, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
