Authorities Seize Over 60 Pounds Cocaine in Michigan, Texas Smuggling Busts
Law enforcement agencies recently intercepted two significant cocaine smuggling attempts at the U.S.-Canada and U.S.-Mexico borders. On May 23, 2025, the Canada Border Services Agency stopped a semi truck at the Ambassador Bridge carrying 187.5 kilograms of cocaine valued at approximately $23.4 million; the driver, Kambiz Karandish, was arrested and charged with importation and possession for trafficking. Around the same time, U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers at the Ysleta International Port of Entry in El Paso seized 42 pounds of cocaine hidden in a vehicle driven by a 21-year-old American woman, who was subsequently arrested and turned over to Homeland Security Investigations. The U.S. officials highlighted the use of advanced scanning technology and drug-sniffing dogs in detecting concealed narcotics and emphasized the ongoing threat posed by fentanyl-laced drugs, reinforcing the importance of border security efforts. Both agencies underscored their commitment to using intelligence and technology to disrupt evolving smuggling methods and protect communities from illegal drug trafficking.
