LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) - A young Lincoln man who acknowledged putting a hyper kitten in a homemade bong to calm it with marijuana smoke has been ticketed again on a pot charge.

Lincoln police say 20-year-old Acea (ACE-ah) Schomaker (SHOE-maker) also was cited for being a minor in possession of alcohol.

Police Capt. David Beggs say Schomaker was ticketed by officers who were called to a disturbance Saturday night. They took Schomaker to be Cornhusker Place Detox.

Beggs says officers found 1.7 grams of suspected marijuana in a plastic bag in 1 of Schomaker's pockets.

In March, after his first brush with notoriety in the bong cat incident, Schomaker told The Associated Press that he was swearing off marijuana.
