14 pounds of heroin found in gas tank
Tucson, Arizona | Published: 10.04.2008
A man who tried to enter the United States with 14 pounds of heroin in a gas tank was arrested Wednesday at the Nogales port of entry, an official said Friday.
The seizure, worth $648,000, occurred around 5:40 p.m. when a Customs and Border Protection officer selected the driver of a 1989 Jeep Cherokee for questioning because he was visibly nervous, according to a news release.
A drug-sniffing dog was brought in and detected the odor of narcotics, the release said.
As a result, five packages of heroin were discovered in the gas tank.
Both the heroin and the vehicle were seized, the release said. The man was turned over to Immigration Customs Enforcement.
