 Burning of seized drugs in Gore get up local noses (NZ)

The smell of cannabis being burnt by police in the Gore station incinerator is getting up the noses of some nearby businesses, although others admit they do not mind it.
Like it or loathe it, businesses near the police station, contacted by The Southland Times, agreed the smell of cannabis was quite noticeable when seized drugs were being destroyed.
Shop assistant Diane Williams described it as absolutely disgusting some days.
"It's awful, I hate the smell."
She believed it was certainly not a good look for the many visitors to Gore who used the public toilets, just over the back fence from the police station.
"You can see big puffs of smoke," she said.
The police station is in the central business district and near popular tourist attractions, the trout statue and hands of fame statue.
Sergeant Ian Temple said yesterday he could appreciate there would be "quite a stink" when cannabis was being disposed of.
The incinerator was used regularly to get rid of seized drugs and exhibits, but police had never received any complaints in the past.
Anyone with concerns should contact police directly because it was something they would definitely take on board, he said.
The problem might be just a timing issue and solved by restricting the burning of cannabis to nights or the weekend, Mr Sinclair said.
