CBP Uncovers Millions in Cocaine at Texas Borders

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers have made several significant drug seizures at various Texas ports of entry, uncovering millions of dollars worth of cocaine. At the Pharr International Bridge, officers found over $1 million worth of cocaine hidden in an SUV, aided by K-9 units and non-intrusive inspection technology. At the Eagle Pass Port of Entry, CBP officers seized $1.4 million worth of cocaine from a tanker truck. Another notable seizure occurred at the Laredo Port of Entry, where officers discovered $498,000 worth of cocaine in a Honda CR-V. These operations highlight the CBP's effective use of technology and inspection skills in intercepting illicit drug shipments. Investigations have been initiated by Homeland Security, and several arrests have been made.
