ASP Seizes Nearly 60 Pounds of Marijuana in I-40 Stops

Arkansas State Police intercepted nearly 60 pounds of illegal marijuana during back-to-back stops on Interstate 40.

Two I-40 stops

The seizures happened during two separate stops made one after the other on the interstate. The Arkansas State Police, commonly known as ASP, handled the stops.

Marijuana seized

Together, the stops involved nearly 60 pounds of marijuana described as illegal. The title of the announcement does not give an exact weight for either seizure or a combined total beyond “nearly 60 pounds.”

What the announcement establishes

The event involved police activity on Interstate 40 and the removal of a large quantity of marijuana from the roadway. The two stops were connected by timing, with one following the other.

The announcement does not identify the people involved, the vehicles that were stopped, the specific locations on I-40 or the charges filed. It also does not state whether anyone was arrested or where the marijuana was headed.

Next steps

Any criminal case would proceed through the applicable law-enforcement and court process. Case details, including identities, charges and court dates, would be established through official records if filings are made.
