RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) - The South Dakota Highway Patrol says a
trooper who stopped a vehicle on Interstate 90 discovered nearly
half a ton of marijuana.
The trooper stopped the pickup truck for speeding east of Rapid
City on Friday, and authorities say a drug dog uncovered numerous
bales of marijuana under a cover in the back of the pickup.
A 40-year-old Massachusetts man was arrested on drug charges
including possession of 980 pounds of marijuana.
