LATIMES/ R. Marosi
3 screen read...combined. A tick-tock feature about one such bust.
Moving drugs.
It's a dangerous but highly lucrative game of cat and mouse...that happens dozens of times a day on the USA/Mexico border.
The narcos pack drugs and money inside specially equipped vehicles hoping to cross into the USA...while the DEA agents there watch...and often eavesdrop...on the smuggling efforts...waiting to catch the big fish.
(Interesting factoid...the Sinaloa narcos prefer to custom outfit Volkswagen Jettas and Chevy Avalanches.)
