Officials found 24 packages of suspected methamphetamine worth $3,278,000 in a van driven by the 34-year-old from Westminster, Colorado, according to Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The woman was referred to a secondary inspection while attempting to cross the Anzalduas-Reynosa International Bridge into Hidalgo, Texas, where officials identified 164 pounds of methamphetamine in the vehicle’s tires.

“Our officers intercepted these strong narcotics due to great observation techniques and commitment to CBP’s mission of keeping dangerous drugs out of our communities,” Port Director at Hidalgo, Pharr and Anzalduas, Carlos Rodríguez said, according to CBP.
