## Resource

A K9 sniffing mission at a Minneapolis UPS facility uncovered a massive cocaine bust—over 23 pounds hidden in two suspiciously named packages from La Mesa, CA. After swapping the drugs for samples and setting up a sting, cops caught Hamza Ali Salah red-handed delivering one package, then used the same dog to pinpoint Apartment 557, where they arrested his brother Nabil. Inside? Two machine gun–modified handguns, an AK-47 style rifle, and a pile of cash—revealing a far bigger operation than just drugs. This routine mail check turned into a major weapons seizure and double arrest, proving K9 units are frontline heroes keeping dangerous stuff off the streets.
