Dee~Night~Cat	Honestly, I do not recemend it. And yah, you can be charged with theft, but he'll get charged to, so he most likely won't call anyone but his street buddies on you, but still, it is funny to talk about, and funny to laugh about after.... but not until you get out of the city, and not when your running. The only reason he didn't catch me is 'cuz he was drunk. And the only reason he didn't follow me is 'cuz I was already out of the city, and he knew I would do something like that to him sooner or later. And if your gonna be in the city where he is, don't let him see who you are! And wait 'till they're stoned! lol Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

mccoyblues	Yes you can be charged, but chances are the dealer you stole from will seek out his own style of street justice. He won't be calling the Police. Watch your back. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lcmcpa	Earlier this year in Gainesville, Florida someone stole pot from a dealer. The dealer reported it and was arrested along with the thief. You could be arrested and charged if the dealer reported it. Usually the dealers takes care of this without the authorities since they don't want to be arrested. They just pop a cap is the@ss of people who steal from them. Of course, they hurt them severely first in order to send a message to other idiots not to mess with them. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Layla	If you steal drugs from a dealer you'd be in big trouble. But not from law inforcement. I doubt the dealer would go to the cops, but that would be the least of your problems! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

dwmatty19	Yes, even if the object you steal is illegal itself, a theft is a theft and you can be criminally charged for it. The general definition of theft is when you take or obtain possession of the property of someone else without their knowledge or permission, and with the intent of never returning it and thereby depriving them of it's benefit, value or usefulness. So, if you take another persons cocaine without their knowledge and permission, and with the intent of never returning it, then you have committed a theft. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
