Two Canadian truck drivers in their 20s are facing charges in North Dakota over a $4.5 million load of marijuana intercepted at the U.S. border. Co-host and producer Nate Tabak explains why he’s looking into the case – which has some unusual aspects.
The drivers were arrested on April 23 after U.S. Customs and Border Protection Officers discovered the marijuana while inspecting what was supposed to be a load of straw at the U.S-Canada border in Pembina, North Dakota.
In an unusual turn for a border drug case, border officers turned the truckers over to the county sheriff to face state charges. Tabak is looking into why this happened. Also unusual: is the young age of one driver - one is 21 years old, according to court records.
Co-host and fellow FreightWaves reporter Noi Mahoney joins Tabak for the episode.
