Border Patrol agents and Mexican officers discovered two unfinished tunnels near the international border on Sunday, officials said.

The tunnels, usually built for drug smuggling, were found during the sweep west of the DeConcini port of entry into Arizona, according to a statement issued by U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Both tunnels were about 2 feet wide and 3 feet tall, and one of them reached about 10 feet into the United States.
