K-9 finds $2M fentanyl in Arizona traffic stop.
Border Patrol K-9 Discovers $2 Million Worth of Fentanyl During Traffic Stop in Arizona
During a routine traffic stop in Arizona last week, Border Patrol agents were assisted by a patrol K-9 who had discovered million worth of fentanyl that was being smuggled, according to officials.
“The narcotics totaled more than 192 pounds, enough to kill 48 million people,” said Yuma Sector Chief Patrol Agent Patricia McGurk-Daniel.
The seizure took place at a checkpoint along I-8 close to Yuma, as reported on Twitter by McGurk-Daniel. After the car seats had been opened and fully examined, another image showed the K-9, whose name was not immediately disclosed, in front of the car.
According to public U.S. Customs and Border Protection records, the amount of fentanyl collected during the traffic stop was greater than the total amount of fentanyl seized throughout the whole Fiscal Year 2022 in the Yuma Sector. Additionally, more fentanyl was also discovered concealed inside the car’s gas tank, according to FOX10 Phoenix.
No information has been immediately released regarding the individual transporting the drugs or any conceivable charges.
