Some pretty pricey melons

SAN ANTONIO (AP) - December 21, 2009

Police in Texas report finding a melon shipment worth more than two million bucks.

Of course, it's not the melons that are so pricey -- but what was hidden underneath them.

Authorities say pot was loaded below the crates of watermelons.

Officers in San Antonio had pulled over the driver of the tractor-trailer because one of the headlights was out.

The truck driver was busted and is being held on $20,000 bond.
