Drug agents looking for person who shipped $100,000 of marijuana to central Florida

ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — Drug agents are working with Washington state investigators to find the person who legally bought large amounts of high-grade marijuana and illegally shipped it to central Florida.
 
Investigators said they watched someone carry three large boxes of marijuana into a home in an upscale neighborhood.
 
Investigators said the drugs were professionally packaged and vacuum sealed. Officials said they think Stephon Brown and Shawn Sakura planned to turn the drugs for a profit.
 
The boxes were flagged at Orlando International Airport, according to authorities.
 
The hydroponic strain that was found is called "Tahoe OG" and is considered very strong.
 
Authorities said the three boxes were worth around $100,000.
 
Officials at a UPS store told agents that the men had received 26 identical boxes since mid-November.
 
"We don't want it here and we're glad it's stopped," an unnamed neighbor said.
 
Brown and Sakura are both from the west coast and are being held in jail without bond because they're deemed a flight risk.
 
Investigators also found $34,000 cash and a stolen gun in the home.
