BRIDGEPORT, Conn., Feb. 3 (UPI) -- Police in Bridgeport, Conn., have arrested a man who allegedly tried to sell "A Plus" marijuana using Craigslist.org.

The ad, allegedly posted online by Steven Zahorsky, 24, offered a half-ounce of "A plus" marijuana for $220 and the same amount of "B plus" marijuana for $160, The (Stamford, Conn.) Advocate reported Sunday.

Police said Zahorsky was fooled into selling three-quarters of an ounce of marijuana to an undercover officer at a McDonald's, where he was arrested by police from Stamford and Darien.

Police charged Zahorsky with possession of more than 4 ounces of marijuana, possession of marijuana with intent to sell, possession of a hallucinogenic, operation of a drug factory and sale of marijuana.

He is scheduled to appear Feb. 13 at State Superior Court in Stamford.
