Big Drug Bust for Border Patrol

Jan 25, 2007 05:56 PM PST

Border Patrol agents working near the Los Ebanos International Crossing intercept over a half million dollars worth of Marijuana.

In all, 20 bundles and a raft were found.

Agents on patrol first noticed one suspect carrying a bundle, but as they closed in he ran and agents gave chase.

"As the chase was happening, there were 6 or 7 other subjects that came up from the brush from the area. All 6 up to 8 suspects, everybody managed to swim back to the river," says Border Patrol spokesman Oscar Saldana.

We're told that these sort of bust will become more frequent as more agents are added to the field.
