New York State Police say they intercepted a major shipment of drugs.
Troopers noticed a suspicious woman sitting in a car at the South Bay parking area in Tupper Lake. When an officer asked Laurie Albany, 42, to roll her window down, police say they could smell a strong odor of marijuana.
They searched her car and found 150 pounds of “very potent marijuana,” according to Capt. Robert LaFountain.
LaFountain says it is “hydroponic marijuana designed to be used in the drug trade.”
The marijuana was allegedly smuggled into New York through Canada. It has a street value of more than $310,000. State Police are calling it one of their biggest busts in recent memory.
