Kobasic pleads to marijuana distribution

MARQUETTE, MI (AP)--   A Chicago man accused of leading a marijuana operation in the Upper Peninsula has pleaded guilty. 

Officials say Pedro Kobasic pleaded guilty Monday to conspiracy. He admitted a role in distributing about 110 pounds of marijuana over a four-year period in Delta County and other areas.

Kobasic told a judge that the marijuana was delivered by a courier or sent by FedEx. He'll return to Marquette federal court for his sentence on February 9.

At least four others in the marijuana ring have been sentenced, including a cousin, Nathan Kobasic of Bark River, who is locked up for more than six years.
