A traffic stop on Interstate 80 near Lincoln Thursday led to the seizure of 49 lbs. of hydroponic marijuana and one arrest.

Around 2:40 Thursday afternoon, a trooper stopped a 2010 Cadillac, eastbound on I-80 for following too close.

A Lincoln Police Department K-9 alerted to the odor of drugs near the rear of the car. A search led to the discovery of 49.3 lbs. of hydroponic marijuana in several bags in the trunk.

The sole occupant of the car, 49-year-old Paul Carl Riedel was arrested and lodged in the Lancaster County Jail.

Reidel had ID’s showing addresses from Midlothian, Virginia, and Santa Rosa, California.
