A Pennsylvania couple is suing the local police department and their insurer after being arrested at gunpoint, handcuffed and stuck in the back of a police cruiser for hours — all because their insurance agent couldnt tell the difference between landscaping and pot farming. The roots of the arrest stretch back to September, when a tree fell on to the side of Edward and Audrey Cramers house, damaging both the home and an antique garden tractor. When the couples insurance agent, Jonathan Yeamans, came to their home to assess the damage, he saw flowering hibiscus plants in their backyard and allegedly mistook them for marijuana.
