A traffic stop south of Payson netted three arrests and the seizure of more than 100 pounds of marijuana.
Albuquerque residents Robin Williams, aged 21, Tupac Crum, aged 19, and Erick Harris Jr., aged 22, were all arrested and booked into the Gila County jail on drug charges.
On December 4, 2016, Arizona Department of Public Safety troopers stopped a white Chevrolet pickup for traffic violations.
A search of the vehicle uncovered five large plastic-wrapped packages of marijuana in a tool box and equipment box in the bed of the truck.
The marijuana inside had a street value of about $69,000.
AZDPS Assistant Director, Lt. Col. Hunter said, “Through interagency cooperation and the combination of our resources, we will continue to remove dangerous drugs off the streets. Together we are committed to making communities in Arizona safer through the aggressive enforcement of our state’s drug laws.”
