Border Patrol seized over 800lbs of fentanyl between ports of entry since October: source
Fox News
Border Patrol agents at the southern border have seized over 800lbs of fentanyl since the beginning of the fiscal year, a federal source told Fox News this week.
The 800 lbs include a recent bust in Southern California in which Border Patrol located 232 lbs smuggled in a vehicle during a traffic stop in San Clemente. 232 lbs is enough to kill 50 million Americans. Adam Shaw is a politics reporter for Fox News Digital, primarily covering immigration and border security.
The drug, which is fatal in small doses, has been at the heart of the opioid crisis that has killed tens of thousands of Americans each year. The drug is 50-100 times stronger than morphine and is often cut with other drugs, meaning that the user doesn’t know they are ingesting fentanyl. The Drug Enforcement Administration says the 2.2 lbs represents half a million lethal doses. He can be reached at adam.shaw2@fox.com or on Twitter.
