Recreational marijuana
sales began last week at two stores in Massachusetts, the first to open on the
East Coast.
Customers gathered
outside the stores before the sun rose on Tuesday, quickly forming hours-long
lines. Anticipating the buzz around the first shops, both dispensaries hired
detail police officers to be positioned at the shops.
Cultivate is paying
$21,010 per week for a Leicester Police detail around its Main Street store.
NETA in Northampton is paying the city police $18,207 for traffic detail around the Conz Street dispensary.
