NOGALES, Ariz. (AP) - There was more than melons in a shipment of produce. Federal authorities report finding nearly $2.5 million worth of pot hidden in a load of watermelons. U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers say almost two and a-half tons of the illegal weed was in a tractor-trailer rig stopped in southern Arizona. A Mexican man was busted, while officers seized the melons and the marijuana.
