A 22-year-old Grand Coulee man learned Tuesday that the best place to try to sell marijuana is not outside the Grant County Courthouse.

Grant County sheriff's deputies got a call from citizens at 1:30 p.m. reporting that a man wearing a red coat and black baseball cap was approaching people on the front lawn of the courthouse asking if they wanted to buy marijuana, authorities said.

Deputies found Andrew Allen Kramer standing on the lawn of the courthouse and noticed a strong odor of marijuana coming from him.

Kramer was detained and found with 20.5 grams of portioned and packaged marijuana in his pockets.

Kramer was arrested, cited for possessing marijuana and released.

"This one speaks for itself," Sheriff Tom Jones said.
