TCH-A, CBD truck disappears after short investigation in Miamisburg

MIAMISBURG — A truck advertising the sale of THC-A and CBD-containing products disappeared soon after News Center 7 began investigating the business.

News Center 7 Investigative Reporter John Bedell looked into a truck that was openly advertising the sale of THC-A and CBD products.

Bedell spoke with some of the residents in Miamisburg who noticed the truck as clear as day.

“Uh... That do look like a marijuana truck,” Eric Johnson, a resident, said.

“That’s what it looks like. Don’t you think? That’s what it looks like!” Diane Kramek, another resident, said pointing to the marijuana leaf on the side of the vehicle.

The vehicle also displayed a QR code that took a potential customer to the company’s website. The advertisement message read, “No card needed!” and “Shipped right to your door!”

“Yeah, it looks like kind of Door Dash for marijuana. I mean that would be my first thought,” Jake Maus, a Miamisburg resident, said.

“I think some people do need to check it out a little more,” Johnson said.

News Center 7 checked into it and found that the website listed CBD and THC-A products for sale.

Our team learned that the truck was in violation of a zoning code, even if the truck was just an advertisement.

“Well, for us, it’s really a sign code violation. It really serves as a mobile billboard and we don’t allow billboards in the city,” City of Miamisburg Development Director Chris Fine said.

Bedell wanted to understand more about the truck and the services the company provided after finding a piece of paper on the dash saying, “Please call with any concerns about this vehicle.” However, once Bedell looked into the truck and left a message, the truck disappeared.

A man claiming to own the truck called Bedell back Friday. While he did not want to be identified, he said he works for Kush-It.com. He confirmed the city called him Thursday about the truck and he moved it after their conversation.

He also said the products on the website are “100 percent legal” and that they have “a lot a happy customers.”

Once they moved it, there was no longer a violation, which prompted the city to drop the case and no longer be involved with the issue.
