U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officials seized more than $4 million worth of cocaine during a cargo inspection at the Port of San Juan on Monday. According to CBP, officers with the Anti-Terrorism Contraband Enforcement Team selected a container for inspection and discovered eight duffel bags hidden among pallets. A search of the bags revealed 149 brick-shaped packages that tested positive for cocaine, totaling 365 pounds. The seizure is part of ongoing efforts by CBP to intercept illegal drugs entering the United States through the Caribbean and underscores the agency’s continued focus on protecting public safety and disrupting criminal networks.
