It's a lost and found story worthy of Cheech and Chong after dopey dope fiends let their stash find its way to police.
Wellington District Police posted a picture of the half-kilo of primo buds in a tongue-in-cheek appeal to its owners on its Facebook page on Sunday night replete with the hash... tag #wonderiftheywillcall.
"We've located a substantial amount of cannabis and would like to speak to its owner. If this is yours can you please get in touch with us."
The post sparked up the comments section with at least one commenter offering the orphaned herbs a good home.
Another was simply a GIF of Homer J. Simpson vanishing, backwards as he is swallowed by a hedge of marijuana leaves.
"It needs to be thoroughly destroyed by being rolled up in paper and burnt," another commenter quipped.
While clear-headed readers would probably think twice before contacting the authorities, many commenters were lobbying for the stash on "medicinal" grounds.
Given the highly unlikely chance of the stash being claimed police can always follow Billy T. James' lead and create "hats" from the illicit haul.
A spokeswoman said police were always looking at different ways to communicate on social media.
"We try to be informative and fun at the same time. This approach works well for us, and often results in much higher engagement with our followers. It's one way of reminding the public to let us know about concerning activity in their communities, by notifying police through official channels," she said.
