160 Kilos of Marijuana Seized (Tijuana Press, 12/31/12 by Nora Leticia Garcia)

Tijuana, BC - Approximately 160 pounds of marijuana were seized inside a vehicle on calle 5 de Febrero in Col. Mariano Matamoros. There are no detainees. The report by the Secretariat of Public Security of the State (SSPE) stated the drugs were inside of a green 2000 Dodge Caravan with national plates AJV3956, found parked in the opposite direction of traffic.

In the official version about the confiscation of the drugs, an agent of the Preventive State police PEP said he realized that the doors were unlocked and the Interior contained several packages of different sizes with wrapping similar to that often used to hide drugs.

The authorities reported that in total there were 44 packets with a total approximate weight of 160 pounds. According to figures from SSPE, the amount is equivalent at least to 320,000 doses with a street value of 6,400,000 pesos ($493,000 US). http://www.tijuanapress.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=8543:aseguran-160-kilos-de-marihuana-en-el-mariano&catid=1:locales&Itemid=50
