Re: One Pound of Marijuana Located on Greyhound Bus

On Tuesday 03/01/05 at approximately 11:00am, Officer John Gibbert and his K-9 partner Oran of the Texarkana Arkansas Police Department’s Special Operations Unit were working narcotics interdiction at the Greyhound Bus Station on E. 51st Street. Officer John Gibbert and his K-9 partner Oran located one pound of marijuana in a travel bag in the overhead compartment of a bus traveling from Dallas Texas to Alabama. The drugs have an estimated street value 1000.00 dollars.

A 17 year-old black male juvenile of Killeen Texas was arrested and charged with felony Possession of Marijuana with Intent to Deliver. He is currently being held in JDC and no bond has been set.
