At approximately 6:47 p.m., a DPS Trooper stopped a 2014 Volvo RV traveling east on US-287 near Clarendon for a traffic violation. The Trooper then discovered multiple boxes containing vacuum-sealed packages of marijuana and THC products inside the rear cargo area of the RV.

The drugs allegedly were being transported from Redding, California to Houston, Texas.
