Opinion
The appellant here complains of the seizure of, and use as evidence against him of marihuana by the customs agents who followed him some forty (40) miles from the Mexican border.
It is clear that this seizure was warranted both under the normal concept of an arrest upon probable cause and under the provisions of 19 U.S.C.A. § 482, the border search statute.
The judgment is affirmed.
