A cache of marijuana worth nearly $3 million was recently seized at the Arizona border.
A drug dog named Rocksey sniffed out the contraband and alerted officers to the smell of narcotics coming from a commercial produce truck Friday evening at the Nogales port of entry, according to a press release the Office of U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
Officers inspected the truck and found 121 bales of marijuana among the pallets of yellow squash.
This is the second seizure at Nogales since Jan. 21 facilitated by a drug-sniffing canine. Wendy, another drug dog, alerted officers to the presence of narcotics on a vehicle with a leaky gas tank, according to the Office of U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Officers discovered 224 packages of marijuana in hidden compartments in the vehicle.
Since the beginning of October 2006, officers have seized nearly $11.2 million worth of marijuana, according to the press release.
