30 Boston college students busted at Vt border
DERBY LINE — Thirty college students from the Boston area are facing charges after they tried to enter the United States from Canada at the Derby Line border crossing with alcohol and drugs in their bags.

Vermont State Police issued 26 citations Monday for minors in possession of alcohol, charged three people with marijuana possession and charged one Boston University student with possessing a single tablet of ecstasy.

Trooper Andrew Jensen said the students were traveling back to Boston on eight tour buses after a weekend outing in Quebec.

Jensen said some of the students were from Boston University, but he didn’t know if all were.

Jensen said the students’ bags were searched by Customs and Border Protection agents. The cases were then turned over to the state police.
