AJO, AZ - Agents say after several hours of tracking operations in the west desert area on Monday, U.S. Border Patrol agents assigned to the Ajo station found more than 1,000 pounds of marijuana with an estimated value of more than $850,000.

The Border Patrol says agents located the footprints of a group of people along the international boundary. Agents tracked the footprints for several hours and eventually came upon multiple backpacks containing the marijuana.
