PHILADELPHIA (CBS 3) ― Authorities are trying to determine how a large quantity of marijuana and cocaine ended up on a flight from Jamaica that arrived in Philadelphia over the weekend.

Police said just over nine pounds of cocaine and marijuana were found in eight packages hidden on board an Air Jamaica flight from Montego Bay that arrived in Philadelphia at about 9:30 p.m. Sunday.

Crew members on board notified authorities after discovering the packages stowed in the drawer of a catering cart.

Authorities said the drugs, worth approximately $44,000, will be destroyed.
