TUCSON – Customs and Border Protection officers at the Raul Hector Castro Port of Entry in Douglas, Arizona arrested a 60-year-old man from Agua Prieta, Sonora, Mexico, in connection with a failed attempt to smuggle more than 200 pounds of marijuana into the United States June 23.
After officers referred the man for a secondary inspection of his Nissan sedan, they found multiple packages of marijuana hidden throughout the vehicle’s interior and exterior.
Officers seized the drugs and sedan, and turned the subject over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investigations.
