On Feb. 6, a canine at the I-19 checkpoint assisted agents in the discovery of $35,000 worth of marijuana hidden inside a vehicle’s ceiling. Agents arrested the driver and seized the marijuana.
The next day, agents at the checkpoint referred a vehicle with two occupants for a secondary inspection after a canine alert. As a result, agents discovered 20 packages of methamphetamine, three packages of heroin, and two packages of cocaine concealed in the vehicle’s trunk compartment. Agents arrested the male Mexican national driver and the female United States citizen passenger.
