GSU finds 24 pounds of weed

The Gang Suppression Unit (GSU) continues to suppress the supply of drugs in Belize City. This morning at eleven-twenty-five, members of the GSU conducted an anti drugs operation in the Faber’s Road Extension area behind the residence of a reputed drug trafficker.  During a thorough search of the savannah area, amongst the garbage, officers found a black plastic bag containing seventy grams of suspected cannabis. The search continued in another section of the savannah and they found a red crocus sack containing eighty-nine parcels of cannabis weighing a close to eleven kilograms.  In total, the GSU found twenty-four point three pounds of cannabis. Since no one was found in the area at the time of the search, the drugs were kept and labeled as found property.
