That's a lot of pot!

From Eyewitness News:

Six men have been arrested for possessing more than 3,000 pounds of marijuana.

Members of the DEA's New York Drug Enforcement Task Force discovered them transferring cardboard cartons containing the drug from a tractor trailer parked in Elmhurst, Queens, to two smaller vehicles early Monday morning.

In addition, it is alleged that the suspects possessed between $200,000 and $300,000 in United States currency.

Weiyang Yao, 47, of Cucamonga, California, Yuejiang Zeng, 53, of San Gabriel, California, Shan Wu Zhang, 30, of British Columbia, Canada, and Duanzhao Zhang, 38, Tong Shun Zhang, 29, and Tong Zhew Zhang, 24, all of Brooklyn will appear in Queens Criminal Court Tuesday

They will each be charged with first-degree criminal possession of marijuana. If convicted, the defendants each face up to five and a half years in prison.

Please stop saying that people with names like these are from California and brooklyn when they are (most likely) not even from here to begin with!

All cash paid for houses!

At least we know now where the money is coming from.

See! We keep saying those 53" trucks (presumably, this is one) shouldn't be on our roads!!! Clearly, this does not constitute a "non-divisible load", since they were transferring to two trucks!

You will be a pothead too if you can make that much and 80% chance of getting away with it..
Hey 5 years in prison for 10 million bucks.. some will do it... ppl can't even earn that in a life time.

And these idiots are stupid..or seems like it. Of course it's going to smell with that much load. what are they thinking.. I think they are 2 cocky and thus willing to take that risk since they probably had done it a few time already. You mix it up man.

Wait, President Barry just today released 6,000 "non violent" drug offenders from prison, "victimless crimes" he calls it. So these dudes should be released ASAP. Don't believe me?

The government shutting down another small business because they didn't get their cut of the taxes!

They must have heard that NYC's DA's do not pursue criminal charges for possession of marijuana and thought they had a "Get Out Jail Free" card.
