"Huge marijuana bust at California border crossing nets 15 tons"
Last week, the Federal police in California found 15 tons of marijuana in the back of a semi labeled "mattresses and cushions." The truck came from Mexico and the Border Police said the x-ray of the truck didn't look right. Inside the truck, there were 1,296 plastic packages of weed that weighed 31,598 lbs and is estimated to be worth 18.96 million dollars. At a U.S. border crossing, this is the second largest weed bust in history. The first was in 2013 when the bust was weighed at 17.6 tons or 35,265 lbs. Below is a photo taken at the bust.
