Morrison was at the Agriculture Inspection Station on Highway 41 when Officer Andrew Stalvey found four cardboard boxes inside a vehicle in which the bill of lading indicated the semi-trailer was empty, according to the state agency.

Upon inspecting the boxes -- after Morrison couldn’t produce a bill of lading for the boxes -- Stalvey found 203.5 pounds of cannabis that were wrapped in 20 individual packages, the state reported.

Booked into Columbia County Jail, Morrison was charged with trafficking in cannabis over 25 lbs and use of a commercial vehicle in the commission of a felony.
