EL PASO -- U.S. Customs agents at the Ysleta bridge seized 9,000 pounds of marijuana valued at $7 million on Wednesday.
The drug was found shortly after noon at the commercial cargo area of the border crossing.
According to officials, the marijuana was found in 6,640 bundles after the truck was moved on to a secondary inspection area. The truck was supposed to be carrying auto parts but an imaging system found anomalies.
Customs and Border Protection agents made five more drug busts on Wednesday, seizing an additional 1,335 pounds of marijuana. The total for the day was 10,419 pounds of marijuana, officials said.
