CBP arrest Colorado woman with over $3 million in methamphetamine

TEXAS, USA — US Customs and Border Protection, Office of Field Operations (OFO) at the Anzalduas International Bridge arrested a 34-year-old woman, a United States citizen from Westminster, Colorado after detecting $3,278,000 worth of alleged methamphetamine concealed within the SUV she was driving.

“Our officers intercepted these hard narcotics due to great observational techniques and the commitment to the CBP mission of keeping dangerous drugs out of our communities,” said port director Carlos Rodriguez, Port of Hidalgo/Pharr/Anzalduas.

On November 30, 2020, the woman driving the Chevy Suburban arrived at the Anzalduas-Reynosa International Bridge from Reynosa and a CBP officer referred her for a more thorough inspection which included utilizing a non-intrusive imaging (NII) system.
