Border Patrol agents seized another 1,750 pounds of marijuana on the Tohono O'odham Reservation and discovered two stolen pickups southwest of Tucson Thursday.

On Thursday evening, Border Patrol agents on routine patrol spotted a suspicious truck parked in an abandoned shack near the village of San Miguel, said Rob Daniels, a Border Patrol Tucson Sector spokesman.

Agents found 65 bundles of marijuana beside the truck.

The 1,750 pounds of marijuana, which has an estimated value of $1.75 million, and a 1999 Chevrolet truck were turned over to the Drug Enforcement Administration. No arrests were made, Daniels said.

After midnight, agents found two stolen trucks en route to a rescue beacon southwest of Tucson, Daniels said. Agents found ammunition and a small amount of marijuana inside one truck.
