MARFA - A big bust for Border Patrol agents in Marfa, more than 2,000 pounds of pot.
Agents found it in a truck, but the driver is no where to be found.
Agents first noticed the pickup late Monday night.
The driver turned his lights off, so they couldn't watch him.
A short time later, another agent spotted the same truck and chased it.
The driver turned onto a highway, then purposely ran into a fence.
He managed to flee and has yet to be found.
The pot found inside the truck has a street value of almost two million dollars.
