He had a pipe in his mouth, but what he was smoking wasn’t legal. Frederick Police on Tuesday arrested Daniel Paul Schaefer, 22, of fixed address, for possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Drug Enforcement Unit officers conducting surveillance along Carroll Creek say they saw Schaefer puffing on a pipe.  He was contacted by police, and he told them he was smoking marijuana.

Schaefer was placed under arrest.

A search following the arrest netted no additional contraband.

Schaefer was taken to the Adult Detention Center for processing.
