NEWS / Highway 78 Checkpoint Yields Marijuana Seizure


Blythe, Calif. – U.S. Border Patrol agents from the Yuma Sector seized just over 100 pounds of marijuana and arrested one suspected smuggler yesterday.

While in secondary, the driver, a 53-year-old male Mexican national, consented to a search of his vehicle following an alert by a canine team. During the search of the vehicle, a white 1991 GMC Sonoma Truck, agents discovered a hidden compartment constructed of welded metal inside the spare tire. The hidden compartment contained several plastic-wrapped bundles of marijuana. Agents checked the remaining tires and found similar compartments.
