COVINGTON, Ky.-- Authorities say a northern Kentucky condo owner who opened the wrong garage door by mistake found a drug stash that put two of his neighbors behind bars.
Benjamin Bingham and Nicholas Mann entered not guilty pleas Monday in Kenton Circuit Court to conspiracy to traffic in marijuana.
Police said their neighbor, Mike Finke, had just purchased a condo in the complex and went to clean out the unit's garage. When the key jammed and the lock pulled out of the wall, Finke opened the door and found two duffel bags and a suitcase containing 48 pounds of marijuana, according to The Kentucky Enquirer, which cited police reports.
After Finke called police, he realized he was in the wrong garage.
Police say the garage belongs to Bingham and Mann.
