Officers from the Traffic Department recovered a large quantity of drugs, suspected to be marijuana, during a routine patrol in Anse Gallet, Anse La Raye Thursday night, Dec. 4.
Reports are that at about 8:45 p.m. men acting suspiciously off loaded several black plastic bags and fled in a white pickup after encountering the lawmen, who gave chase but failed to nab the suspects.
A source said based on the quantity of drugs, it could weigh in excess of 100 pounds.
The packages contain green plant material, but lab tests will be carried out to confirm this on Friday, the source said.
