 Texas man arrested with 75 pounds of marijuana in luggage while flying to London, police say A Texas man was arrested at Miami International Airport after authorities found 75 pounds of marijuana in his luggage before he could board a flight to London. Harrison O’Neill Tiernan, 23, from Austin, was charged with cannabis trafficking. He was traveling to Heathrow Airport and had checked two suitcases for his British Airways flight. Inspectors discovered 65 vacuum-sealed packages containing a green, leafy substance later confirmed to be marijuana. U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers stopped Tiernan while he attempted to board the flight, and he acknowledged that the bags were his.

 Truck driver accused of being in the US illegally denied bond by Trump administration

A truck driver accused of causing a deadly crash in Florida that killed three people was denied bond Saturday.

Harjinder Singh, a native of India, is at the center of a dispute between the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and California Governor Gavin Newsom over his work permit and driver’s license. Federal officials say Singh was in the U.S. illegally. He faces three state counts of vehicular homicide along with immigration-related charges and is being held in St. Lucie County Jail, where U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has placed a hold on him.

Homeland Security criticized California’s policy of issuing driver’s licenses to people regardless of immigration status, calling it “asinine,” while supporters argue it allows safe travel and access to work and healthcare. Newsom’s office said Singh obtained a work permit during Donald Trump’s presidency, a claim disputed by federal officials. Singh reportedly entered the U.S. illegally from Mexico in 2018.

The crash occurred about 50 miles north of West Palm Beach when Singh made an illegal U-turn on the highway. A minivan in the adjacent lane collided with the truck’s trailer, killing the driver and two passengers. Singh and a passenger in his truck were unharmed. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis sent Lt. Gov. Jay Collins to California to escort Singh back to Florida on Thursday.
