Ah, freshmen! The Suffolk County District Attorney's office reports two Northeastern freshmen got a quick civics lesson Sunday when a plainclothes police officer allegedly heard one of them yelling out a second-floor window that his roomie had started up a business:

"If you're looking for weed, my roommate Ferrante has some for sale," Emery allegedly said as he rigged a pulley system that would bring a pair of empty plastic bottles up and down between his dorm and the one directly above it.

In addition to drug-related items, officers also found several bottles of liquor that, as the DA's office notes, the two 18-year-olds were not of legal age to possess. The two were released on their own recognizance by a Roxbury District Court judge.
