A massive drug bust was just made in Detroit, Michigan. The feds discovered about $3 million worth of cocaine in a semi-truck at Ambassador Bridge. A semi-truck driver attempted to cross the border into Canada with a massive supply of drugs.
Federal agents in Detroit arrested a semi-truck driver who was attempting to smuggle $3 million worth of cocaine.
A semi-truck driver was acting natural and blending in as he attempted to cross the Ambassador Bridge from the United States to Canada when federal agents in Detroit conducted a massive cocaine seizure.
At roughly 6:15 a.m., the US Customs and Border Protection Detroit Contract Band Enforcement Team made contact with Gurshinder Singh while conducting outbound enforcement operations.
According to the Free Press, the truck driver used an Ontario tractor and trailer. The sign stated that he was traveling from Wisconsin and staying in Indiana overnight. Then officers urged him to get out of his truck.
While searching the tractor-trailer, customs and border protection officers accessed the trailer’s toolbox compartment. Next, they discovered Home Depot moving crates hidden behind rubber matting.
When the officers opened one box, they discovered vacuum-sealed, duct-taped brick bundles of cocaine, which were consistent with narcotic packing. The officers removed eight Home Depot cartons from the trailer. Three of the bundles tested positive for cocaine.
This parcel is the fourth alleged bulk cocaine cargo captured by customs and border guards at the bridge since March 21.
The number of controlled substances and mode of transportation from the United States to Canada suggest a larger drug trafficking endeavor that includes further distribution of controlled substances.
