Authorities Make Record Cocaine Seizure
Updated 8:11 AM ET September 20, 2000
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (Reuters) - More than ten tons of cocaine valued by authorities at
$125 million was
confiscated from a transport truck in what Arkansas authorities said on Tuesday was
the largest cocaine
seizure in the state's history.
"We weren't in a position to make public the details until today," Randy Ort, a
spokesman for the Arkansas
Department of Transportation, said of Monday's seizure.
Ort said state highway policemen were inspecting a tractor-trailer rig on Interstate
30 near Hope, Arkansas,
when they uncovered processed cocaine hidden in a shipment of cantaloupes. Twelve
thousand dollars in cash
was also found in the truck.
The truck driver and a passenger, both believed to be Oklahoma residents, were
arrested and jailed in the
town of Hope. Bond for the driver was set at $2 million, while bond for the passenger
was set at one million.
"They've lost somebody a lot of money," Ort said. "They're probably safer in jail
than anywhere else."
