United States law enforcement officials have found marijuana in a shipment of disinfecting wipes destined for Barbados.

The US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said over the weekend that the four pounds of ganja seized by its officers in Cincinnati, Ohio, arrived from Canada last Wednesday and were for an unnamed “doctor” here.

“On May 6, 2020, CBP officers inspected a shipment arriving from Canada and heading to a doctor in Barbados. Officers held the package for inspection based on their experience, X-ray anomalies and a drug detector canine alerted to the parcel,” the agency announced.

“Inside officers found disinfecting wipe canisters and other cleaning products. However, inside those canisters and other packages was four pounds of marijuana.” (SC)
