CBP Southbound Operations Seize Nearly $65,000 at Douglas Port of Entry
(Friday, December 04, 2009)
Douglas, Ariz. — U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers stopped an illegal exportation of nearly $65,000 while screening traffic going into Mexico.
On December 2nd at about 4 p.m., CBP officers were screening traffic going into Mexico as part of a southbound operation. The officers selected a Ford F-150 being driven by a 21-year-old man from Phoenix. Further inspection revealed that the man was attempting to smuggle nearly $65,000 out of United States. The CBP officers found the illegal currency concealed in a secret compartment constructed in the floor of the F-150.
CBP officers seized the vehicle and illegal currency. The man was turned over to the custody of Immigration and Customs Enforcement for further investigation and prosecution.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection is the unified border agency within the Department of Homeland Security charged with the management, control and protection of our nation's borders at and between the official ports of entry. CBP is charged with keeping terrorists and terrorist weapons out of the country while enforcing hundreds of U.S. laws.
