ACP Emrick Seymour is seen at Police Headquarters following the seizure of some $2.3 million worth of marijuana early Wednesday morning on Grand Bahama. Some 21 duffle bags were discovered in a van that was travelling on the Warren Levarity Highway. Four male occupants were taken into custody. Two persons were also later arrested and taken into custody in connection with the matter. Police investigations are continuing.
Four men are in custody after suspected marijuana with a street value of $2.3m was seized in Grand Bahama.
Shortly before 1am this morning, officers from the Drug Enforcement Unit were en route to an assignment when, while on Warren Lavarity Highway, they observed a van that appeared to be heavy laden with occupants acting in a suspicious manner. The officers pursued the van and signaled for the driver to stop which he refused. A chase then ensued that resulted in the van being stopped on Fishing Hole Road in the vicinity of Fishermen’s Stands.
The van was occupied by four males from Freeport. A search was conducted that resulted in the discovery of 21 duffle bags, each containing multiple packages of suspected marijuana. The men were arrested and taken into police custody with the drugs. Investigations are continuing.

Man just legalize weed and les make some money on it! Ridiculous people have to go to jail for something so damned benign! Alcohol is way more debilitating than weed.
LEGALIZE IT!

It would be easier, for real. Soon weed would not worth smuggling to the USA after its legalized there.

Let's say 100% duty on imported weed. This would have given our government revenue of over 2.3 million since shipping costs are factored in duty....
