South Carolina man applied for a loan so he could purchase some meth.

A South Carolina man was arrested after he told a payday loan person that he was applying for the loan so he could get some meth.

According to a police report, Grady Carson, 58, went to a Carolina Title Loans office in Spartanburg to secure a loan against his automobile. According to its web site, the loan company provides “fast cash to deal with an unexpected expense” and charges interest rates that begin at 96 percent.

A Carolina Title Loans employee told cops that Carson--who was pacing as he filled out paperwork--told her he "needed the money to purchase meth."

Since her manager was at another store, the worker “faxed a help letter” to the second employee, who contacted cops.

When officers arrived at the loan business, Carson was handcuffed and a search of his pockets turned up “a glass container with a off white rock like substance inside.” Carson, cops noted, “stated it was cocaine but he was not going to smoke it because he did meth.”


Hey dummy, if you're going to apply for a loan don't tell the person manning the counter that you're doing it so you can purchase meth.
