STERLING, Va. | Customs and Border Protection says a drug-sniffing dog found 21 pounds of marijuana hidden in packages of chocolate shipped to Washington-Dulles International Airport.
The marijuana was headed to New York. It has an estimated street value of nearly $17,000.
Officials say the dog, named Demi, alerted for a mailbag that arrived from Mexico City. One of five boxes in the sack contained marijuana.
The marijuana will be destroyed.
