Drug Bust

Another drug smuggler caught on I-80, this time 15 miles west of Cheyenne. Fifty-six year-old James Richburg was carrying 188 pounds of high grade marijuana from California to Pennsylvania in a rental truck. Troopers were alerted Sunday that a rental truck was driving on the interstate west of Cheyenne and had hit another vehicle without stopping. A rental truck matching the description was pulled over about 15 miles west of Cheyenne and a Wyoming Highway Patrol drug detection dog was called after the driver appeared very nervous. The dog indicated the presence of drugs and troopers opened the rear of the truck, discovering 19 boxes of what they called high grade marijuana in a load of household furniture.
