State Patrol seizes 368 pounds of pot in traffic stop
The Nebraska State Patrol seized nearly 400 pounds of marijuana and arrested an Indiana man following a traffic stop Saturday.
The patrol said a trooper saw a Dodge Ram failing to stay in its lane on I-80 near Goehner around noon and pulled over the driver.
The trooper detected an odor of marijuana, and a subsequent search turned up 368 pounds of marijuana contained in 16 trash bags, the patrol said.
The driver, Bradley Wooten, 37, of Carmel, Indiana, was arrested for possession of marijuana – more than one pound, possession with intent to deliver, and no drug tax stamp. Wooten was lodged in Seward County Jail.
