The amount of Canadian marijuana intercepted at the U.S.-Canada border crossing in New York State is skyrocketing.
The Peace Bridge is no different. U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers have not seen anything like this before.
Exhibit A: On Monday, a tractor-trailer was discovered to be carrying almost two tons of pot. It was loaded onto 14 shipping pallets that were listed as lighting equipment.
With marijuana legal in Canada, but against federal law here, border crossing officers are finding more attempts to smuggle pot into the United States.
The Buffalo Field Office for customers and border security has jurisdiction from the Peace Bridge to the Port of Champlain.
During a total of 16 border crossings since the first of last year, some 27,000 pounds of narcotics have been intercepted.
