$2.4M Worth of Meth Seized at Texas-Mexico Border

Texas law enforcement seized over $2.4 million worth of methamphetamine hidden in a tractor-trailer that attempted to cross the U.S. border at the Pharr Port of Entry, Breitbart reported.

On June 9, Customs and Border Protection officers stopped a 2012 Freightliner tractor-trailer approaching from Reynosa, Mexico, for a routine commercial inspection and suspected smuggling.

DPS special agents uncovered nearly 400 bundles of the drug in a hidden compartment and arrested the driver, according to the Texas Department of Public Safety.
