LOS LUNAS, N.M. - Prosecutors said they expect guilty pleas Wednesday from two men accused of serving marijuana on hamburgers to police officers.

Justin Armijo and Robert Nuckols are due in court Wednesday afternoon.

Investigators said the two sprinkled the pot on top of hamburgers at a Los Lunas Burger King where they worked last fall. Then, the pair served those burgers to two Isleta Pueblo police officers, according to investigators.

Armijo and Nuckols face charges of aggravated battery on a peace officer and distribution of marijuana.

The two officers who ate the drugs are now suing Burger King.
