A US man stopped by police claimed he was taking his huge stash of marijuana to be recycled. Iowa state police didn't believe the 30-year-old man's story and arrested him. The man was stopped with several large bags containing a 'gallon' or more each of marijuana. The man claimed he was taking the bags full of drugs to be turned into compost.
Officers refused to accept the man's justification for the drugs jailed him. He has so far not posted his £7,000 bail charge and has been charged with possessing marijuana with intent to distribute.
