Hi-Ho, Hi-Ho, It's Off to Toke We Go
Boulder police allege 'bridge trolls' sought tolls to fire up big roll
Michael Malik | Rocky Mountain News | 07/14/2006

Two men recently attempted to charge people a dollar to cross a bridge in a park near the intersection of Foothills Highway and Colorado Avenue and allegedly threatened to stab an off-duty sheriff's deputy with a broken golf club after he refused to pay.

Witnesses said they heard the two shouting lines from the film Monty Python and the Holy Grail about how people "shall not pass."

The Boulder County Sheriff's Office gave the following account:

As sheriff's Sgt. Kevin Parker tried to cross the bridge on his bike, Robert Hibbs, 19, and Bradley Boville, 18, asked for a dollar.

When Parker refused, Hibbs allegedly told Boville to "go stab that guy," prompting Parker to dial 911.

Hibbs grew increasingly aggressive and charged at Parker as he waited for officers to arrive. Parker had earlier managed to wrestle a golf club from Hibbs and struck him in the shoulder area, apparently not fazing him.

When officers arrived and took the pair into custody, they admitted taking LSD and tried to explain their bridge troll act as a "bad trip."

Police found a marijuana joint hanging out of Boville's pocket, and the two told officers they were trying to raise money so they could buy a lighter to smoke the "very large" joint, which was made out of several dollar bills.

While the officers were questioning Boville, they noticed loud music coming from a nearby residence, which Boville said was his.

Officers reported seeing several marijuana pipes and a water pipe through an open sliding-glass door. A search yielded 11 pipes and 3 grams of marijuana.

Hibbs was charged with menacing and possession of LSD. Boville was charged with menacing and possession of less than an ounce of marijuana.

The moral of this story is: buy fewer pipes and more weed. Also: spend your money and smoke the pot - smoking the money is counterproductive.


This was an investigation pursuant to an arrest - they admitted to taking LSD and were caught with the weed. Not to mention unlawful detention, assault, battery, and assault with a deadly weapon. Perhaps attempted murder?

they could charge them with troll-ing.....

I remember acid <sorta>

We had lotsa fun, but I don't think we woulda been very convincing bridge trolls with the perma-grin and being distracted by all the colors, man.

This story made me laugh, but I worry for the future of those two kids. They have deeper issues for this to happen, not counting the experimenting with drugs.

I guess they don't believe in sitters. because a sitter would of saved them from this arrest...hopefully
