We've heard of getting high – but now it seems weed dealers are taking their drug packages higher than ever.
On Monday
afternoon, at around 2:00, police received information from Special branch that a parcel was flown in on a Topic Air flight. Police searched the cargo
area and officers found a brown box, which had been mailed from Corozal Town to San Pedro. Inside, they found police found 444.7 kilos – or just under
a pound – of marijuana. Because police could not link it to anyone, the drugs were deposited as found property.
Acting on Special Branch intelligence once again, police visited the Municipal Airstrip in Placencia, and they intercepted a domestic flight coming
once again from Corozal Town. One of the packages was searched, and this resulted in the discovery of some vegetables. Among what appeared to be
cilantro, the officers found a bulky package which was wrapped. When it was opened, the police found 208 grams – or 7.3 ounces – of marijuana. Again,
because no owner could be tied to the package, it was deposited as found property.
