Mixed in with real carrots, they found more than 2,800 orange, carrot-shaped packages.
Inside those packages there were nearly 2,500 pounds of marijuana with a street value of $499,000, officials said.
The case is under investigation by agents of Homeland Security Investigations.
Meanwhile, a Canadian man was arrested while pulling a sledge carrying more than 180 pounds of prescription pills across
the border into the US.
21-year-old Cedrik Bourgault-Morin was apprehended early on Wednesday
after he crossed the border from Quebec along a railroad line into North
Troy, Vermont.
Prosecutors say Bourgault-Morin was wearing white camouflage and border
patrol agents were alerted to his presence when he triggered a sensor.
Prosecutors say agents found 300 vacuum-sealed bags of anti-anxiety
Xanax pills in a duffel bag on the sled. They say the pills had a street
value of $1.6m.
Bourgault-Morin is being held in a Vermont prison.
