The Cheektowaga Police Department seized more than 200 pounds of marijuana today. They also found stolen weapons and $330,000 in cash along with the marijuana. Jim Speyer, Captain, said this bust made his departments history.

Their diligence and paying attention to details and following up on tips, surveillance and undercover work paid off,” Speyer said. What a waste of taxpayer money because while they were wasting all their time looking for a drug that is non harmful, real criminals on the street will get away.
