Mexican Policia Federal units seized 1.4 metric tons of marijuana in two seizures in northern Mexico according to Mexican news accounts.

According to a news report which appeared in the online edition of Milenio, a Policia Federal regional security division unit was operating a checkpoint on the Mexican Highway 40D in Coahuila state between Saltillo, Coahuila and Monterrey, Nuevo Leon when a truck was stopped and searched.  Inside the van police found 84 packages of marijuana in a hidden compartment totalling 1,344 kilograms.

The truck had originated from Torreon, Coahuila.  The driver, identified in the news account as José Luis Aranda Contreras, 49, was detained at the scene.

Meanwhile in Sonora state, a Policia Federal unit, part of a regional security division operating a checkpoint on Sonora State highway 37, between Carborca and Puerto Peñasco, inspected a Ford Ranger pickup truck with three individuals aboard finding marijuana hidden in the tires.

According to the news report which appeared on the website of El Sol de Mexico news daily, the drugs were arranged in a metal container in a circular pattern.  The total amount seized was 68 kilograms.

Raul Gonzalez Santos, 31, and Aleyda Ibarra Acedo, 30, were detained at the scene, while an unidentified minor was also in the truck was presented to the public ministry.

  1. metal containers inside the tires. jajaja... the feds could hear the clanking. I wonder if the contrabandistas on the road from Caborca were bait to keep the feds busy while the real load went on to Sonoyta.

  2. Is this a buzz kill or a thank you for not allowing dirt weed to cross the border?

    3. Unless the outdoor growers in Mexico are using all the best nutrients and 12 hour cycles i doubt thier bud is that good. They dont though, they use soil and rain and then stomp on it so they can package 10 lbs into 1 little brick and ship it. Im sure there buds arent that bad though before they stomp on it to get it across the border. Im sure the reason Cartels dont generally do large scale indoor weed growing is because its too fragile and the cost of growing weed indoors is expensive. They prefer huge meth labs unfortunately. :(

    2. Your right man, Cali weey is this best shit you could smoke no doubt about that. Mexican weey in Cali is consider lower shelf weey witch could cost you in between $300-375 per pound not like the Cali weey witch could go from 500 + per pound. Btw, a few weeks ago at Newport beach In Orange County California, there was a huge drug bust. I'm talking about tons of "who knows what" on board of a private jat. I witness everything with my own eyes and days pass I never heard no report's of any drug bust after I took the time to investigate.

  7. I just came back from Mexico its not bad as it seems. We drove as a family trough sonoro, sinaloa, and Nayarit. Spent for days in Mazatlan. One week in Acaponeta, Nayarit and a week in Tepic. And every thing was good. You will see young guys with nice trucks and cars. You can see whos in the biz. But they can careless on who you are. I guess you shouldn't believe all the exageration You read and Experience it first hand.

  9. When reading this article you must wonder why you never (almost) hear of any significant busts in the US. I mean the same drugs which traverses Mexico also traverses the US.
    Are our cops lazy, corrupt or poorly equipped, or what? Why dont they stop the tons and tons of drugs being smuggled accross the border? Juddging by the busts it seems the Mexicans are better at it than our own cops.
    It is as if the moment the drugs are accross the border the cops are only interested in locking up as many as possible for small amount possession.

    2. Please my company were being stopped at South Padre Island by a cop for speeding and they had a tahoe filled with bundles and at the end they crashed and fled leaving the drugs their, but they didnt arrest anyone.
      On second occasion, we had a rat and they raided the house, but "they moved the stuff the day before at brownsville

    shows how little you know about the weed business. most of the mota and seeds are from Mexico. The best strains are from Mexico. who do you think supplies the dispensaries? who do you think owns them? why do you think they don't get hit?

  14. @ 3:48am. There is a pretty simple reason why you almost never hear about large drug seizures here in America (especially coming from Mexico)....the American government doesn't want you to know. Every now & then, you may hear about a very large bust, but just about everyday, drugs gets confiscated at the border. Sometimes its a fairly large amount and sometimes its small, but not worth putting into the media. Its no different for the beheadings that happen in Mexico. Just yesterday, the MSN homepage had a story about the Taliban beheading 2 Afghan boys. That is half a world away...basically not going to happen here in America. Yet the atrocities in Mexico don't make headlines here in America. Its too close to home and the government doesn't want to instill fear into the general population. Not to mention that the beheadings in Mexico happen so often, the government does not want Americans to become numb to them.

    1. They dont want americans buying more guns in a panic as we love our 2nd amendment.we already have millions in our hands and steady buying more everyday.thats alot of why beheadings dont happen openly.in mexico you pretty much know who has the guns and would shoot u in the u.s you dont know who on the street or in a neighborhood will gun you down

  17. The mexican cartels will never,ever,never,never grow Kush!!!! First,they need the weather,the golden triangle is too humid for Kush.Second,they are too cheap to do it indoors, nutrients and lighting are not cheap. The only way is to cross polinate their crap weed with Kush,but they have not done it yet..The plant is very picky to scores of environmental factors..e.g. ph of dirt,ph of water,correct nitrogen,potassium,and phosphorus levels,proper watering,harvesting,and curing.All of these factors are time consuming and there is still no guarantee because you might get mold..Its 2013 and they still have not done it on a commercial basis in Mexico because its not easy!!!!

    Some people end up with huge plants,but there is no argument some of the best greens are US.Thank god for our American brothers.

    You're from the "rich" North-side and you don't know how to properly type in English? I bet your Spanish is as bad as your English. I'm embarrassed we're from the same city. You must be one of those TDK shopping swag kids that wishes he was black huh? Long timer hustler and you using "swag" to refer to a type of bud? I've never heard anybody anywhere use the word "swag" to describe weed. By the way, you ain't no "hustler". Just because you slang a few ounces out your mommas house doesn't make you a "hustler". You know how I came to that conclusion? "every stop its cut cut cut by the time it reaches other places who knows what they be sniffing" You know nothing about the game kid. Go finish high-school. Pocho deveria de darte verguenza por ser tan idiota.
