The seizures happened the morning of July 21 at the San Ysidro Port of Entry, according to a press release from the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The first was just after 6 a.m. when officers stopped a traveler using the SENTRI lanes with about 52 pounds of methamphetamine concealed in the vehicle’s spare tire well.
Less than an hour later, officers discovered another person in the SENTRI lane with about 7.6 pounds of fentanyl powder in the undercarriage of his car.
