POLICE have seized 176kg of dagga, estimated to be worth more than R167 000, near Ventersburg. 11 bags of dagga were found inside a car driven by a 48-year-old Odendaalsrus man after two policemen noticed an over-loaded Ford Sierra stuffed with bags on the Senekal-Ventersburg road. The vehicle sped off and a chase ensued. One of the policemen fired three shots at the vehicle’s tyres and the driver stopped. Two men jumped out of the car and ran into the veld. One was arrested.
