In the mass chaos that has overtaken America’s southern border since Joe Biden moved into the White House, the smuggling of mostly Chinese-produced fentanyl has become one of the deadliest killers for the nation. Recently, a K-9 unit at Camp Border Patrol Station in California discovered 250 pounds of fentanyl in a vehicle trying to cross the border. Just the News reports:
Border Patrol agents have arrested a man who allegedly attempted to smuggle about 250 pounds of synthetic opioid fentanyl across the southern U.S. border.
Agents at the Campo Border Patrol Station, in California, stopped a 2015 Black GMC truck on an interstate near the Golden Acorn Casino at about 3 a.m. Monday, according to an agency press release.
The truck was sniff-searched by a Border Patrol K-9 that alerted agents to the vehicle.
Border Patrol officers discovered about 250 pounds of potentially deadly fentanyl pills contained in “multiple bundles concealed within the vehicle’s spare tire and gas tank,” officials said.
The pills have an estimated street value of over $3.6 million.
