American caught at border with marijuana worth $57,000
An American man was arrested near the Mexican border after being caught with almost 143 pounds of marijuana in his car Tuesday night.

Luis Demara-Campas, 21, stopped at the Amada checkpoint, south of Tucson, at about 7:45 p.m.

When agents pulled him into a secondary checkpoint, Demara-Campas fled in the vehicle.

Agents caught up with his white 2002 Dodge Neon and stopped him on Interstate 19.

Six bundles of marijuana were found hidden inside the trunk of Demara-Campas' car.

Agents estimate the value of the haul to be over $57,000.

The driver and the car were turned over to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration.

According to their 'Official DEA Guesstimate How Many Jelly Beans Are In the Jar' formula...

Luis was found in possession of 6.4 ounces of pot and was expected to be gramming it out at at $20 a sack.

I just think it's so strange how they slap such arbitrary dollar values on bust hauls. Like, a doctor with a flashlight will help determine from which orifice that number was yanked...:wtf:
