Troopers say a U-Haul pulled over on I-44 in Greene County this week was packed with 171 pounds of pot.

It's believed the marijuana was headed to Detroit - coming from Phoenix. Court papers say the driver told investigators he was getting paid $2,000 to make the delivery.

Troopers cut the lock off the back of the U-Haul after a drug-sniffing dog indicated there was something in there.
