Two recent drug busts have the Navajo community of Tuba City, Arizona, worried that they are becoming a trafficking corridor for methamphetamine.

In the past few weeks, Navajo police seized seven pounds of meth. The suspects were said to be outsiders, including a Mexican national.

Navajo Nation law currently does not ban methamphetamine. Tribal leaders around the country say the drug is becoming a problem on their reservations.
