CBP officers at the Pharr International Bridge pulled off a jaw-dropping bust—over 2,800 pounds of meth hidden inside produce like cabbage and tomatillos, with a street value exceeding $25 million. Using advanced imaging and K-9 units, agents uncovered the massive shipment on September 8th, seizing the tractor-trailer and launching a criminal investigation.
