Another weed plantation busted

Ask the people who should know and they will tell you that on the streets of Belize City good marijuana is as scarce as a blue note on the night before payday. While the reason for the shortage cannot be exactly determined, some large-scale busts of major plantations may have something to do with it.

Over two thousand fully grown plants were uprooted and put to the torch. No arrests were made.
