Bust yields 162 pounds of marijuana
The Salt Lake Tribune
Daily Journal reports
A Ukiah woman has been arrested in Utah after a traffic stop ended in a drug bust.
Deborah K. Schlosser, 56, of Ukiah was stopped by a Utah Highway Patrol trooper as she traveled through Salt Lake County Saturday evening.
The trooper stopped Schlosser around 8 p.m. as she drove eastbound on Interstate 80 toward Salt Lake City, said UHP Sgt. Larry Mower. The trooper pulled Schlosser over just after she'd crossed the Tooele County Line after observing her swerving on the road, he said.
The trooper, who was working with a canine named Tank, asked Schlosser if he could search her vehicle after the dog indicated drugs were possibly inside, Mower said.
The trooper and Tank discovered five or six large duffle bags full of suspected pot in the back of her charcoal gray Toyota Tundra.
Utah Highway Patrol arrested a woman on Interstate 80 with what has been identified as 162 pounds of marijuana. The street value of the drugs is estimated at $600,000, Mower said. The woman was arrested and booked at the Salt Lake County jail on suspicion of possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute. Schlosser was not cooperating with investigators late Saturday evening, Mower said. Before the trooper searched her vehicle and found the drugs she told him that she was from California and was driving to visit friends in Minnesota, he said.
