Scan finds pot cache in truck

IRENE HSIAO

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers seized 1,504 pounds of marijuana Saturday at the Mariposa cargo facility at the Nogales port of entry.
A gamma-ray scan on a tractor-trailer revealed an anomaly in the front of the trailer, said customs spokesman Roger Maier.

Officers found the marijuana wrapped in cellophane in a compartment, Maier said.
