$3M in Narcotics Seized at Arizona Ports of Entry
Tucson, Ariz – U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Officers at Arizona ports of entry continued their mission of protecting the American public this weekend, seizing more than $3 million in cocaine and marijuana.
CBP Officers at the Nogales port of entry arrested three women in connection with a series of attempts to smuggle cocaine with a street value of more than $2.5 million into the country on March 18th. Officers discovered almost 62 pounds of cocaine hidden in a Mitsubishi Galant driven
by a 53-year-old woman from Nogales, Sonora; 5 pounds of cocaine hidden under the clothing worn by an 18-year-old woman from Nogales, Sonora; and more than 32 pounds of cocaine hidden in a Ford Ranger, driven by a 34-year-old woman from Imuris, Sonora. All three women were arrested and turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.
On March 17th and 18th, CBP Officers at the Douglas, Nogales, and San Luis ports of entry stopped four attempts to smuggle marijuana with a street value of almost $500,000 into the country hidden in different vehicles. In addition, officers at the San Luis port of entry arrested four men in
connection with different attempts to smuggle in small amounts of methamphetamines, marijuana and ecstasy.
