A firefighter on Staten Island was arrested Wednesday for allegedly selling $40 worth of weed to undercover cops who spotted his advertisement on Craigslist. During the transaction, 32-year-old Michael Seise, a three-year veteran of Ladder 82, also inexplicably hinted that he was a member of the FDNY, a police source tells the Daily News, adding, "This guy is an idiot. There's really not much else to it." After the arrest, police found traces of white powder believed to be cocaine in his Chrysler 300 luxury sedan. Seise has been suspended immediately, which is probably a good thing, because it must have been irritating to pull the firetruck over every time he got the munchies.

Just weeks into the first semester, students narced out an unidentified NYU freshman for allegedly selling coke from her dorm room, prompting her expulsion from the residence. That a student at an obscenely expensive university was supplementing her allowance by slinging a little yey is hardly a shocker. But what's raising eyebrows over at the campus paper is that her room was never searched, no evidence was collected, she wasn't formally charged with a crime, and the accusations were never passed along to campus cops or the NYPD.
