AN adult man was arrested and two juveniles taken into custody after police found about ten pounds of suspected marijuana, with an estimated street value of $14,000, at a home in Matthew Town, Inagua, on Wednesday night.
Officers assigned to the Inagua Division, assisted by the Drug Enforcement Unit, went to a residence on Gregory Street shortly before 8pm, acting on information received.
They presented a search warrant to the man at the home. A boy and a girl, both juveniles, were also there.
Police said a search of the residence uncovered the suspected drugs and a small amount of cash believed to be proceeds of crime.
The man was arrested, while the two juveniles were taken into police custody in connection with the discovery.
The seizure comes three months after police in Matthew Town found a firearm with ammunition and 64 cans of suspected marijuana-infused drinks during a search of a sport fishing vessel at the Government Dock. A 42-year-old American and a 33-year-old Mexican national were arrested in that case.
