Harris Co. Deputies Seize $25 million in Marijuana [TX] December 28th 2006 - Houston Chronicle
A man was arrested after authorities seized about 15,000 pounds of marijuana at a northwest Harris County warehouse Wednesday night.
Louis Mendoza, 29, was charged with was charged with possession of a controlled substance and possession of marijuana with intent to deliver after the Sheriff's Office Narcotics Unit received a tip that he was in possession of a controlled substance and driving a semi-tractor trailer that was pulling a box style-trailer, authorities said.
A deputy saw Mendoza leaving a warehouse located in the vehicle and operating the vehicle on a public roadway without headlights around 10 p.m. Wednesday. Authorities said the deputy then conducted a traffic stop and found cocaine and marijuana in Mendoza's possession.
Upon further investigation, authorities said deputies discovered 502 bales of marijuana weighing about 15,000 pounds — with a street value of approximately $25 million — along with a vehicle and an AR-15 assault-style rifle inside the warehouse Mendoza was seen leaving before he was pulled over.
Mendoza is currently in custody at the Harris County Jail. His bond has not been set at this time.

That hits close to home, most of the weed around here comes from H-Town. I wonder what the prices are going to soar to, in and around the h-town area, ounces go for $25
