Student pinched on drug charges after home-invasion near Temple U
Police on Monday identified a Temple University student arrested on drug charges after three gunmen forced their way into a house and robbed him and three other students Sunday night.
Cops busted Massimo Pulcini, 21, for drug possession and related charges, a spokeswoman said, after they found marijuana inside his house on Page Street near 15th while investigating the home-invasion robbery.
According to Pulcini's LinkedIn profile, he's a journalism student set to graduate next year (insert jokes about journalists having to take side jobs to pay the bills here). On his Twitter, he says he's a Philadelphia journalist and photographer.
Don't worry, Pulcini, getting nabbed for having weed probably won't affect your chances of getting a job in journalism -- mostly because there are no jobs in journalism.
As for the three guys responsible for the home-invasion, cops said they stole all four victims' cell phones and an unknown amount of cash. Police arrested one of the men they believe was responsible for the home-invasion Sunday, but he hasn't been charged.

Call me Captain Obvious but why else would anyone be doing a home invasion on college students unless they were dealing drugs?!— barina- Nice. Pulcini is victimized twice. First by the home-invaders and then by getting caught with herb.— aviator

- No surprise here. Drugs and Temple students sort of go hand-in-hand, don't they??— ANGRY AL 2
- Legalize, control & tax. The American "war on drugs" continues to be the single largest financial failure in American history. Save hundreds of billions of dollars chasing, prosecuting and penalizing drug "offenders" and also earn revenue on taxation. Legalize, control & tax!!!— kelprod2

- Well, lordy be! Satan, break out those ice skates because kelprod2 has finally said something (a) that doesn't make my brain explode, and (b) with which I unequivocally agree! Surely the apocalypse must be upon us! — wb2nd
- Tatts...by legalizing, controlling & taxing there will be endless amounts of more money available to help those with addiction issues. Criminalizing drugs has been the largest fiancial failure in American history...and it started waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay before Ronald Reagan. Nixon really go it going.
Sorry, but the time has come to legalize, control & tax. Just like alcohol.— kelprod2 - Comment removed.
