JACKSON, MISS. (AP) - It's some hot stuff -- and it's not thejust peppers. Authorities in Mississippi report finding a load of
pot in a tractor-trailer rig hauling peppers and celery. The bust
came at an inspection station on I-55 in DeSoto County. Officers
became suspicious because the tractor's license plate was in the
front window instead of being attached to the truck. Authorities
say they found 22 large bundles of the illegal weed in the load of
hot peppers. The value of the pot is put at about $460,000. The
driver was arrested.
