CBP said its officers found a ton of marijuana when they pulled over a truck at the World Trade Bridge in Laredo shortly before 2 p.m. on Friday.
Officers used high-tech scanning equipment and drug-sniffing dogs and found 408 bundles containing 2,685 pounds of marijuana hidden within the commercial shipment, according to a news release from the agency.
