VENTURA, Calif. (AP) - A small boat loaded with a ton of marijuana and 10 suspected illegal immigrants has been intercepted in Southern California by federal agents patrolling Pacific Coast Highway for smugglers.
The Ventura County Star (http://bit.ly/AjvRD2 ) says the 20-foot fishing boat was coming ashore in a remote area of southern Ventura County when it was spotted by Department of Homeland Security agents just before 3 a.m. Wednesday near Deer Creek Road.
Ventura County sheriff's Capt. Mike Aranda says federal agents have been patrolling the highway west of Malibu in response to recent discoveries of smuggling vessels in the area.
Ten people, all believed to be illegal immigrants from Mexico, were arrested and about 2,000 pounds of marijuana was seized.
