State inspectors have seized marijuana being sold illegally at a Brooklyn “cannabis cafe” that brazenly posted a bogus state license in the window of its storefront, sources said Sunday.
The state Office of Cannabis Management slapped a Jan. 12 notice on the storefront of Breckenridge Cannabis Cafe in Williamsburg that said, “WARNING: THIS BUSINESS IS ORDERED TO STOP ILLEGAL ACTIVITY.”
“ILLICIT CANNABIS SEIZED…THIS LOCATION MUST IMMEDIATELY CEASE THE SALE OF UNAPPROVED AND UNAUTHORIZED CANNABIS PRODUCTS. ILLICIT CANNABIS PRODUCTS HAVE NOT BEEN TESTED OR APPROVED BY OCAM AND CAN POSE A THREAT TO PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY. THE UNLICENSED SALES OF CANNABIS AND CANNABIS PRODUCTS IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED,” the notice says.
Adding insult to injury, an OCM source said their inspection revealed that Breckenridge had posted the “New York State LICENSED CANNABIS DISPENSARY” sticker inside its front window — but sources said it was a counterfeit.
Breckenridge, located at 319 Wythe Ave., had recently applied for a cannabis license, but jumping the gun and falsely claiming it was licensed likely hurt its bid, the sources said.
