Dumb Criminals: Man Caught With Cocaine After Calling Cops For Needing Assistance In Forest Lot
(STMW) – A man carrying cocaine in his car ended up calling the cops on himself Thursday night in a forest preserve near south suburban Crete, the Joliet Herald-News is reporting.
Will County Forest Preserve Lt. Tracy Phillips said an officer drove through the Goodenow Grove Nature Preserve before locking the gate for the night and didn’t see any vehicles inside.
But around 8:30 p.m., sheriff’s police said Christopher A. Pilarski, 38, had called them to ask if someone could open the gate since his blue Dodge Durango was stuck inside, according to Phillips.
“The same (forest preserve) officer went back and asked Pilarski where he had been and he admitted he was driving on the trails,” Phillips said.
