Recent drug busts across the United States and Malaysia have highlighted significant narcotics seizures, particularly methamphetamine. In Texas, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers seized 757 pounds of meth hidden in a shipment of water at the Colombia-Solidarity Bridge, valued at approximately $6.9 million, and earlier found 838 pounds concealed in a jicama shipment at the Pharr International Bridge, valued at about $7.5 million. Meanwhile, in Jefferson County, Alabama, authorities arrested a man with over 6,700 grams of meth and various other drugs during a raid. In Malaysia, police arrested a suspect and confiscated 36 kg of methamphetamine worth RM1.15 million, believed to be smuggled from a neighboring country. These operations underscore ongoing efforts to combat drug trafficking and safeguard communities from the dangers posed by illegal narcotics.
