2 California men arrested in Nebraska after marijuana seized

POT-BUSTLINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Two California men have been arrested in Lancaster County after deputies say they found more than 40 pounds of marijuana in their car during a traffic stop.

The men were pulled over Wednesday afternoon on Interstate 80 near the Lincoln airport exit Wednesday afternoon for speeding.

A deputy reported a strong odor of marijuana coming from the car, and a search of it turned up three duffel bags stuffed with marijuana packed in vacuum-sealed bags. Deputies also seized $1,300 in cash.

The two men were arrested.
