Two men are in custody in Henry County Jail after law enforcement officials say they had about 163 pounds of cannabis in a vehicle, according to a news release and court records.

At 3:13 p.m. Thursday, a Henry County Deputy conducted a traffic stop with a vehicle on Interstate 80 at Mile Marker 18 for speeding and following too closely. During the course of the traffic stop, Geneseo Police Department’s K9 Kauzi conducted a free air sniff and alerted, the release says.
