The case unfolded when the police fugitive unit spotted 29-year-old Romeo BeSome during an undercover operation in the Frayser neighborhood. According to investigators, officers attempted to approach BeSome for questioning, but he immediately fled on foot. The chase ended shortly afterward in the area of Sun Crashed and Smith Ridge, where police were able to take him into custody. Upon searching the suspect, officers uncovered a **marijuana stash**, several pills, a digital scale, an illegal firearm, and a large amount of cash. Authorities say the **marijuana stash** was packaged in a way that suggested distribution, and the presence of the digital scale further reinforced suspicions of intent to sell. The items, along with the weapon and cash, were displayed on the hood of a patrol car for documentation. Police emphasized that keeping such a **marijuana stash** off the streets is part of their broader strategy to reduce drug-related crime in the community. BeSome, who is a convicted felon, now faces multiple charges, including possession of a firearm by a felon and possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute. This isn’t just about one **marijuana stash**—officers believe his arrest disrupts a supply chain that could have led to more drugs and weapons circulating in Memphis neighborhoods.   Removing another **marijuana stash** from circulation may seem like a small step, but police stress that these seizures collectively make a major impact over time. In recent months, law enforcement has increased undercover operations in high-crime areas like Frayser, focusing on identifying drug traffickers and intercepting illegal shipments. Each **marijuana stash** confiscated represents fewer drugs in schools, fewer overdoses, and fewer violent incidents linked to the drug trade. Police encourage residents to report suspicious activity and to work with authorities to prevent more illegal **marijuana stash** operations from taking root in their neighborhoods. As the investigation into BeSome’s case continues, officers remain committed to ensuring that every **marijuana stash** discovered is removed from Memphis streets. For now, BeSome is being held as prosecutors prepare their case, and police hope that this latest seizure sends a strong message: a **marijuana stash**—no matter the size—has no place in the community.   [by Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rKOHY50a3IA) [Cannabis Laws](https://420intel.com/blog/tag/cannabis-laws) [Marijuana legalization](https://420intel.com/blog/tag/marijuana-legalization) ![Buzz](https://420intel.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Buzz-No%20Outline-2.png?width=200&height=200&name=Buzz-No%20Outline-2.png) #### [Buzz](https://420intel.com/blog/author/buzz) At 420 Intel, we cover cannabis legalization news throughout the world, offer reliable information for cannabis business owners, detail technological advances that impact the marijuana industry, cover marijuana rallies from across the globe, and everything in between. - - - [Cannabis Business News](https://420intel.com/blog/tag/cannabis-business-news) [![Tilray Soars 50%: What's Next Amid Legal Hopes?](https://420intel.com/hs-fs/hubfs/AI-Generated%20Media/Images/The%20image%20features%20a%20bold%20upwardtrending%20line%20graph%20with%20a%20bright%20green%20line%20representing%20Tilrays%20stock%20performance%20over%20the%20past%20month%20showcasing%20a%20significant%2050%20surge%20The%20background%20is%20a%20blend%20of%20soft%20blues%20and%20whites%20evoking%20a%20sense%20of%20optimism%20a.png?width=550&height=395&name=The%20image%20features%20a%20bold%20upwardtrending%20line%20graph%20with%20a%20bright%20green%20line%20representing%20Tilrays%20stock%20performance%20over%20the%20past%20month%20showcasing%20a%20significant%2050%20surge%20The%20background%20is%20a%20blend%20of%20soft%20blues%20and%20whites%20evoking%20a%20sense%20of%20optimism%20a.png)](https://420intel.com/blog/tilray-soars-50-whats-next-amid-legal-hopes) - [![Buzz](https://420intel.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Buzz-No%20Outline-2.png?width=80&height=80&name=Buzz-No%20Outline-2.png) Buzz](https://420intel.com/blog/author/buzz) - 15 October 2025 #### [Tilray Soars 50%: What's Next Amid Legal Hopes?](https://420intel.com/blog/tilray-soars-50-whats-next-amid-legal-hopes) ### Is Tilray Brands Stock a Buy Right Now?
