Florida Highway Patrol officers discovered more than 900 kg of marijuana in a modified camper during a traffic stop on April 16, 2026, in Sumter County. According to sources, the drugs were packed in vacuum-sealed bags and hidden in suitcases, with the trailer's windows darkened to conceal the contents.
A K9 dog alerted to the presence of narcotics in the vehicle, leading to a search that recovered about 50 bags. The driver, a 55-year-old man, was arrested on drug trafficking charges. One source specifies the weight as approximately 2,000 pounds (about 900 kg).
