The District’s Alcoholic Beverage and Cannabis Administration’s (ABCA) Enforcement Division, accompanied by Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers, served closure orders to the owners of two illegal cannabis businesses: All American Papers, at 504 H Street NE and StonerzDC at 521 H Street NE on Sept. 18.

The Alcoholic Beverage and Cannabis Board issued the closure orders to the businesses in response to their continued operation as unlicensed cannabis retailers in violation of cease-and-desist orders. Due to both businesses posing a credible and imminent danger to public health and safety, ABCA shuttered the businesses, including padlocking the doors.

At StonerzDC, investigators recovered 949 grams of marijuana laced with amphetamine, 4,808 grams of THC laced edibles, 1,723.65 grams of THC wax, and 28 grams of entheogenic mushrooms. 

At All American Papers, investigators recovered 3,326 grams of marijuana, 512 grams of THC edibles, 2,053 grams of THC vape cartridges, 459 grams of entheogenic mushrooms, and 16 grams of cannabis oil.

No arrests were made at either location, and an investigation is ongoing.
