More than 3 tons of marijuana seized in Texas
(CNN) -- U.S. authorities have seized more than 3 tons of marijuana from a tanker trailer traveling in Texas' Rio Grande Valley, a spokesman from Immigration and Customs Enforcement said.
Ross Feinstein, a spokesman for the customs agency, said special agents seized the marijuana Friday near Falfurrias, Texas.
It was packaged in about 500 bricks wrapped in clear cellophane and duct tape, he said.
The street value of the marijuana is approximately $5.3 million, according to ICE spokeswoman Adelina Pruneda.
She said 6,700 pounds of marijuana had been seized.

Schwag only goes for a MAXIMUM of 500 a pound, which is a high as fuck price. At that rate its only $3.35mil. If this person was to sell it wholesale he probably couldnt get more than $100 a lb. which would make it only worth $670,000. The government, police etc always lie about values of drugs to make it seem like what they do makes a shit.

law enforcement always tally any drug seizure by full street vale but depending on where your at the swag is still worth allot more than that. swag sells for over $1000 a pound here still even with medical marijuana.

sh*tty Mexican brick weed!!!
2 tons of it is seeds and stems and you'll need to roll the other ton into one single spliff to catch a mild buzz!
Then you'll need a huge bottle of advil to work on that headache when you come down!
$5.3 million?!?! Wouldn't take that stuff 'Free of Charge'!

Or for us Californians a local visit to the dispensary for a little donation.
Picked up some Pure Haze, White Widows, Sour Diesels, NYC diesels, GDP, Bubba Kush, Pineapple and some crappy Strawberry Cough.
I feel pretty good about cutting out the Mexican connection down south knowing that all this money is going towards American citizens and taxes going toward my local police/firefighters/road.
It is a happening scene out here and people are not going on murder sprees because they are on cannab More..
