A 600-yard tunnel equipped with a hydraulic lift, electric rail cars, a wooden staircase and paved with wood was uncovered near the Tijuana airport on the border with San Diego.
Also discovered...32 tons of marijuana.
An ICE spokeswoman called it"...clearly the most sophisticated, major tunnel that we have found in the last 5 years, perhaps ever."
Two weeks ago, another tunnel...some 400 yards long...was found in the same area...and 17 tons of pot confiscated.
