ORDER AND JUDGMENT1
McKAY, Chief Judge.


1
Defendants appeal the denial of a motion to suppress evidence in connection with their convictions for importation, conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute, and possession with intent to distribute less than 100 kilograms of marijuana.3


2
Initially, Defendants assert law enforcement personnel did not have probable cause to arrest them.   The record before us suggests the officers had more than ample probable cause.   The detailed tip officers received was more than adequately corroborated, and in connection with officers' observations, was sufficient to justify the arrest of the Defendants.   Under the circumstances of this case, we hold that Defendants' assertions in this regard are unpersuasive.


3
Defendants also contend that officers conducted an illegal search of the area where they were arrested.   Our review of the record before us suggests that the officers conducted a security sweep of the area where Defendants were arrested and that no search was actually conducted until after a search warrant was obtained.   Accordingly, under the circumstances of this case, we hold that Defendants' contentions in this regard are without merit.


4
Finally, Defendants argue that the trial court made factual findings that are clearly erroneous.   After a review of the record before us, we find this contention to be without merit.


5
Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is AFFIRMED.
