Drug smugglers flying ultralight aircraft are $9,500 short of marijuana after errantly dropping a 24-pound weed bundle over this town a few hundred yards from the Mexican border, destroying the home of Hulk the German Shepherd. The weed bundle crashed through a carport and destroyed Hulk's plastic carrier. When a large boom woke Bill and Maya Donnelly in the early hours of September 8, they initially dismissed the sound as nothing more than thunder. Police believe an ultralightaircraft dropped part of its cargo early before making additional drops north of the border. Drug interdiction efforts have previously spotted or intercepted ultralight planes, which deliver weed bundles over their intended drop zones without landing. In 2009, the US Customs and Border Protection intercepted an ultralight plane and its pilot, seizing 205 pounds of marijuana.
