GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — U.S. Customs and Border Safety brokers made a significant drug bust Tuesday on the Detroit Border.
CBP says brokers seized 339 kilos of cocaine close to the Ambassador Bridge port of entry.
“A Canada-bound commercial vehicle was selected for examination and a subsequent physical inspection conducted by officers revealed bricks of a white powdery substance concealed within two duffel bags and four moving boxes,” CBP mentioned in a information launch. “The illicit cargo was confirmed to be cocaine through subsequent testing.”
The truck and trailer have been seized together with the medication. CBP recognized the driving force as a citizen of India. He’s anticipated to face federal prices.
CBP says the case stays beneath investigation by Homeland Safety. Greater than 1,500 kilos of cocaine have reportedly been seized by CBP brokers at Michigan ports throughout the present fiscal 12 months.
