Nebraska State Patrol troopers confiscated 370 pounds of marijuana and made four arrests along Interstate 80 over the weekend.

Forty-seven-year-old Richard Beavin of Glendale, Arizona was arrested near the Waverly interchange Friday afternoon for possessing 75 pounds of pot. He faces a charge of possession of marijuana with intent to deliver.

Two hours later, 19-year-old Jose Medina-Rubio of Phoenix and passenger 27-year-old Raul Medina-Sotelo of Nogales Sonora, Mexico were stopped in the same area with nearly 70 pounds of marijuana. They were taken to the Lancaster County Jail each on a charge of possession of marijuana with intent to deliver.

Saturday night, a trooper stopped a car near the Paxton interchange for no taillights and ended up arresting 23-year-old Sara Fahr of O’Fallon, Missouri. A search of the vehicle turned up 225 pounds of marijuana.

She was taken to the Keith County Jail and held on charges of possession of marijuana with intent to deliver and driving under the influence of drugs.
