Bad dancing draws suspicion, pot charges




An 18-year-old Plymouth man whose bad dancing at a city festival attracted the attention of authorities was charged Monday with two drug-related misdemeanors, according to a criminal complaint.

Jeffery G. Holm Jr., for whom no current address is listed, could face up to seven months in jail if convicted of marijuana possession and possession of drug paraphernalia.

According to the complaint:

A security officer at Hispanic Fest on Saturday night pointed out Holm to patrolling Sheboygan police officers after observing strange dancing that led him to believe the man was drunk or high.

Holm began to back away as officers approached him on the dance floor, and twice reached for his right pocket. Police — who noted Holm smelled strongly of marijuana — searched Holm and found 2.6 grams of marijuana as well as a glass pipe and a marijuana cigar.
