HALIFAX -- Two Nova Scotia men are facing charges after police pulled over a car Sunday night because its headlights were off.

Police say the car's passenger compartment was stuffed with 20 large marijuana plants.

And in the trunk there was another surprise -- a second young man.

Police say he was apparently making room for the pot plants.

The car was stopped on Prospect Road southwest of Halifax.

A 23-year-old man from Brookside and a 24-year-old male from Hatchet Lake are each facing charges of possession for the purpose of trafficking and cultivation of a controlled substance.
