North Carolina police find $3 million in barrels of pork headed for Mexico Law enforcement in North Carolina found $3 million in a tractor-trailer hauling barrels of raw pork shoulders to Mexico. The Cleveland County Sheriff’s Office alleged the money came from drug sales in the region. “It’s one of the largest U.S. currency seizures in Cleveland County history,” Sheriff Alan Norman said in an interview with the Shelby Star. Law enforcement stopped the tractor-trailer traveling southbound on Interstate 85 in North Carolina on Dec. 7. The driver was stopped for failure to maintain lane and impeding the flow of traffic. During the stop, law enforcement became suspicious of the truck’s cargo when one of their K-9s appeared to detect something in the trailer, according to a Facebook post from the sheriff’s office. A search found the money wrapped in plastic and tucked in multiple barrels of the raw pork in the trailer. https://www.freightwaves.com/news/borderlands-cash-stuffed-pork-barrels-deflated-heavy-duty-truck-sales-in-mexico
