LA VISTA - A 47-year-old California man is facing a felony drug charge in Nebraska after authorities say they caught him on his way to New York with 60 pounds of illegal mushrooms.

Stephen Goldsmith was arrested this week in southeastern Nebraska after Sarpy County sheriff's deputies stopped him for speeding on Interstate 80. Deputies say they smelled marijuana on his breath. Authorities say a search of the car turn up hallucinogenic mushrooms packed away in duffel bags.

Authorities say the mushrooms have an estimated street value of more than $100,000.
