Police discover US-Mexico drug tunnel
Baku, November 4 (AZERTAC). US and Mexican police have discovered a tunnel used to smuggle drugs across the California-Mexico border.
The tunnel, which was more than 500m long (1,640ft), had a rudimentary rail system, ventilation and lighting.
US police also found some 20 tonnes of marijuana, while their Mexican colleagues seized several tonnes.
They said the tunnel connected a warehouse in Otay Mesa with one in Tijuana in Mexico, the main gateway for drugs entering California.
