Border Patrol officers in Southern California discovered nearly $13 million worth of methamphetamine and fentanyl hidden inside a shipment that a Mexican national attempted to smuggle across the border, officials said Tuesday.
After scanning the tractor-trailer with the port’s imaging system – similar to an X-Ray scan – CBP officers spotted anomalies within the trailer. A canine team was brought in and sniffed out the narcotics. Concealed within the boxes, officers found a total of 414 packages consisting of 5,528 pounds of methamphetamine and 127 pounds of fentanyl – a total of 2.8 tons of narcotics with an estimated street value of $12,990,749 million.More Related News
