<p>A Girl Scout leader says young members of her troop thought they were heading to jail when a Georgia police officer told them to quit selling cookies.</p>
<p>The girls had set up a stand at a shopping centre in Villa Rica about 30 miles west of Atlanta on Wednesday when the officer asked them if they had a peddler&#8217;s permit. They didn&#8217;t.</p>
<p>Troop Leader Kathy Crook told WXIA-TV in Atlanta that she was stunned. She says the scouts were told to pack it up.</p>
<p>And she says the younger members thought they would be taken to jail.</p>
<p>The city&#8217;s police chief and mayor spoke with the officer. They say he did nothing wrong and that it was a misunderstanding.</p>
<p>The troop now has a permit to sell. And to smooth things over, the city is offering to host a pizza party for the scouts.</p>
