When federal authorities inspected a pedestrian’s bicycle at the San Ysidro, California border crossing a few days ago, the tires felt a little suspicious.
An X-ray machine revealed that the 18-year-old man — whose name has not been released — was packing a little something extra on his bike ride: 2.5 pounds of marijuana. According to a statement from the Department of Homeland Security, the pot was worth upwards of $1,300.
The man, a U.S. citizen who lives in Tijuana, is being held at the San Diego county jail.
