FALFURRIAS — U.S. Border Patrol agents seized nearly six tons of marijuana that had a street value of more than $9.3 million.
Border Patrol found the 11,719 pounds of marijuana during eight unrelated incidents since Thursday.
The largest bust happened Saturday morning at the checkpoint south of Falfurrias, where agents discovered 8,451 pounds of pot hidden inside a vacuum tanker driven by a U.S. citizen, according to a Border Patrol statement. A canine alerted agents to the scent of marijuana coming from the vehicle and agents found 366 bundles of marijuana hidden inside the tanker.
On Thursday, agents arrested a U.S. citizen with 117 pounds of marijuana hidden within cardboard boxes loaded inside a tractor trailer. A canine alerted agents to the 2,972 pounds of marijuana hidden inside the trailer.
Agents turned over the drugs, vehicles and suspects to the Drug Enforcement Administration.
