NORTH PLATTE, NEB. (AP) -- The keen nose of a drug-sniffing dog has led to the arrest of three Nebraskans and a Texas man.

Police say the dog found the drugs in a package at an Omaha post office.

The package was addressed to a North Platte residence, so police officers converged on the home after the package was delivered Friday.

Police Lt. Rick Ryan says 29-year-old Malia Caudillo was arrested there, as were 42-year-old Nicky Apodaca and 21-year-old Anthony Apodaca.

They face felony marijuana possession charges.

Ryan says 27-year-old Jesus Rodriguez of Brownsville, Texas, was arrested at the North Platte bus station as he arrived from Texas.

Rodriguez also faces the marijuana charge and one for possession of cocaine with intent to distribute.
