TAR HEEL — Authorities are looking for information that will lead them to the person who had a crop of marijuana growing near the Bladen County-Robeson County line.

About 175 plants were seized and burned on Friday after an anonymous tip led narcotics agents from the Bladen County Sheriff’s Office to a field in Tar Heel, according to sheriff’s investigator Richard Allen.

“The street value on these plants would be right around $210,000 … depending on the type of plant and how well they grow,” Allen said.

Anyone with information can call the Narcotics Unit at 910-862-6777. Callers can remain anonymous.

Happy 236th
Thousands of people were dazzled by the fireworks display at the annual Lumberton Family Fourth celebration at the Lumberton High School football stadium on Tuesday. Many watched the display from parking lots and sidewalks around town and from their own front yards. Before the show, attendees were treated to a performance by the Carolina Breakers, and a stunt by the Army Rangers, who parachuted onto the football field.
