Man buys drugs with Monopoly money
Advertisements [?]
A Wichita, Kansas man was apparently beaten up by a drug dealer after the man paid for crack cocaine with Monopoly money. The man, who was bleeding from the head when police pulled him over, said he had purchased the drugs weeks before and the dealer was only now taking revenge. It's not clear why it took the dealer so long to realize that the multi-colored bills were not legal tender. From NBC:

"The man from whom he had bought the drugs was upset and invited him over to his house and upon arrival struck him in the head several times with a handgun and other people jumped into the fray," said Gordon Bassham with the Wichita Police Department.

The victim was able to get away and escape serious injury.

At this point police say he's being uncooperative."
