    Border Patrol officials say the suspect was wading waist deep through a sewer with bundles of marijuana

    (Border Patrol) DOUGLAS, AZ -- Tucson Border Patrol Agents seized a SCUBA tank and 55 pounds of marijuana, saying a smuggler tried to sneak the contraband into the U.S. through the city sewer system.

    According to a Border Patrol news release, agents from the Douglas Station’s Bike Patrol Unit using an infrared camera saw a group of smugglers crossing into the United States illegally near a sewer outlet.

    All but one, who was carrying two bundles of suspected marijuana, returned to Mexico when the agents approached, authorities said.

    Officials say the remaining smuggler was wading waist deep in the sewer with SCUBA gear and wearing a wetsuit. When he saw the agents, the suspect reportedly dropped the bundles and SCUBA gear and began wading through the sewer back to Mexico.

    Officials say the drugs had an approximate value of $44,000.
