What began as a simple trafic stop turned into hell for one man. On Tuesday, 45-year-old Paul Anthony Simmons was pulled over in San Patrico County, TX, and a Texas Highway Patrol trooper noticed marijuana in his tanker—a lot of marijuana, to be exact. 3.9 tons—7,816 pounds—of marijuana was discovered inside of the vehicle.
The bust is being touted as one of the largest in the history of the area. The weed is said to be worth $3.4 million, and Simmons is currently being detained on $1 million bail. It's just not his week.
