August 16, 2011 – A Nepali store clerk at a Texaco gas station on North Belt Line Road and Northgate Drive was arrested yesterday for selling K2 and operating unlicensed game machines at the store.

K2 is a synthetic marijuana-like substance that has been banned for sale in Texas since April 22, 2011. Under the state law banning possession or sale of K2, anyone found possessing the substance is charged with a Class B misdemeanor which is punishable by up to 180 days in jail and a fine up to $4,000.

It is illegal to operate unlicensed game machines at stores and the store clerk working at the time of raid gets arrested for such offense.

The Nepali store clerk, name not disclosed yet, was a student and is now in immigration custody in Dallas.

No further details about the incident or the clerk could be known.

It's been months since this was banned in gas station ....i know it's wrong they got the employer instead of owner but you guys who work in Gas station should know these things specially when it comes to those stuffs which comes under US Laws . Owners won't give shit about anything when they will make you guys work like a horse and pay less even there's way around to make money easily in gas stations.  It's been months it was banned and how come those stuffs were stocked well in that gas station .

bore rai bho.. hoping his case be dismissed and owner be apprehended

I know the owner of that store. Once offered me a job too. He is an Afgani asshole. I talked to him few days ago n was telling about this incident. He told me he had a problem with Nepali working there. This dude only thinks about money. If any body wanna cut his balls then m in.

I also heard that the store had already got warning before for selling k2.

turner bro....
dont show ur arrogance here.... i feel pity for you... the poor guy may not have known the change in law, which was changed recently..... or may be he was mislead by the owners... or may be he has some circumstances.....  or he was just plainly taking the risk (which is unlikely) ......

the way you use your language.... "you guys who work in Gas station " its shameful.... may be u have never worked in gas station... but the language you is is just pathetic..... shame on you..... go wash your brain....

damn i have been sselling k2..k3 ..cloud 9..cloud 10...all of those stuffs in glen burnie!!!anyone knows if its banned in maryland ??

Attention people working in gas station.  Do not sell stuffs that can put u in these problems. There are some oweners who ask the clerk to sell these products under the counter but still u should go aginst him and tell them that u will be in touble for selling that not him. if he puts u in pressure then just tell the customers that its out right now or  come back later or u dont have it anymore. just stay in safe side. dont put yourself in trouble inorder to give your boss some profit.
