About 5 pounds of marijuana was seized and two people were arrested early Monday after law enforcement officers searched a room at the Mark V Motel, Phillipsburg.

Phillips County Sheriff Paul Wisinger says the suspects, a man and a woman, are both from Colorado and were staying at the motel.

The search was the result of a joint investigation between the Phillips County Sheriff’s Office and the Beloit Police Department, according to a news release issued by the sheriff’s office.
