Patrol: Camper held pot

LINCOLN (AP) -- The Nebraska State Patrol says an Idaho man was arrested after troopers found 55 pounds of marijuana in a camper trailer the man had hooked up behind his pickup.

The man was pulled over on Interstate 80 for a traffic violation around 12:30 p.m. Wednesday on the northwest side of Lincoln.

The patrol says a drug dog taken to the scene indicated drugs in the trailer. A search of it uncovered 55 pounds of marijuana under a bed in the rear of the trailer.

The driver, 64-year-old Kenneth Bull of Emmett, Idaho, was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to deliver.

On Friday, a Lancaster County jail spokesman said Bull was still in custody. Court papers do not list an attorney for Bull. Bail was set at $100,000.
