Police in Louisiana have scored a month of massive drug hauls after traffic stops yielded over 1,000 pounds of marijuana, 11,000 ecstasy tablets and 11 pounds of cocaine.

Huge stacks of marijuana were seized after state troopers stopped drivers for minor offenses like improper lane usage and poor signalling.

Subsequent searches by police, and K-9 units in some cases, revealed the cars contained tens of thousands of dollars worth of drugs.

Three of the 4 drivers who were arrested traveling on East I-10 in Louisiana were from Texas.

It started Feb. 26 when troopers pulled over Christopher Lee-Sinc Jackson, 31, from Beaumont.

After searching his car, police said they found 11 pounds of cocaine, 2 hand guns and $10,000 cash hidden in his Lexus.

Photos show the cocaine neatly wrapped in cellophane and taped up with black utility tape.

A police dog sniffed out the next find after a driver was stopped on March 21.

Jamorrius R. Gibson, 23, of Hammond, La., had over a 100 pounds of marijuana, 1.1 kilos -- 11,000 doses -- of ecstasy plus 8 ounces of codeine syrup in his Honda Accord, according to Louisiana state police.

Martin Martinez, 34, from La Marque, was driving a Mercedes on I-10 in Baton Rouge, March 23, when he was pulled over by troopers for improper lane usage. LSP said a search revealed 244 pounds of marijuana.

Finally, the largest haul of over 586 pounds of marijuana, packaged up in bundles, was alleged to be found in 25-year-old Juan Rangle's Nissan Pathfinder on March 24.

All four face charges related to possession of drugs with intent to supply plus minor traffic offences and, in the case of Jackson, a firearms charge of illeaglly carrying weapons.
