CALEXICO, Calif.: U.S. authorities say they discovered more than seven tons of marijuana inside a truck that was crossing from Mexico to California.
Customs and Border Protection officials said Monday that officers found more than 14,000 pounds of marijuana mixed in with plastic items Friday night at the crossing in Calexico, about 120 miles east of San Diego.
U.S. authorities valued the drugs at nearly $6 million.
The agency says a 32-year-old man from Mexicali, Mexico, was arrested and is being held in Imperial County Jail.
The seizure came one day after border authorities in San Diego discovered more than 5,500 pounds of marijuana inside a truck, mixed in with boxes of jalapeno peppers, cucumbers and tomatoes.
