GSU Gets Guat “Grass”
posted (August 7, 2014)
The Gang Suppression Unit has been making significant drug and ammunition busts recently, and its success continued yesterday with the discovery of 52 pounds of marijuana around mile 12 on the Western Highway. Following a tip, the police searched bushes in the area, and found a red crocus bag with the words "El Quetzal Guatemala Centro America Zona 4 La Terminal." When it was opened the cannabis was discovered and labelled as "found property" since no one was in the immediate area. It is believed that the cannabis was smuggled in from Guatemala, and was to be bagged at the area where it was found before being passed off in smaller quantities through check points.

Then at 4:30 in the afternoon, the GSU searched an empty lot on the corner of Nurse Findley Crescent and Faber's Road. They discovered a black plastic bag with contained forty five 9mm live rounds. Once again, no one was around, so it was labelled as "found property."
