Airport drugs suspects held

THREE Pinewood Gardens men are in custody following a seizure of drugs worth $5,000 at the Lynden Pindling International Airport yesterday morning. The men, aged 46, 19 and 17, are expected to appear in court early next week to be formally charged.

According to reports, Drug Enforcement officers conducted an operation at the General Aviation Section of LPIA, where they observed the 46-year-old, who had arrived on a charter flight from Andros, enter a white Maxima occupied by the other two suspects.

The officers searched the vehicle and found a bag containing five and half pounds of marijuana.
