Posted: Updated:
TUCSON, Ariz. -

More than two years after being approved by voters, the first legal medical marijuana dispensary in Arizona is now open for business.

Patients and caregivers showed up to pre-register for distribution at Southern Arizona Integrated Therapies on Sunday.

An armed guard was on hand, checking anyone who went into the doctor's office-style dispensary.

No marijuana will actually be dispensed until later this month.
