An early Christmas for CBP officers


Christmas came early for US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers at the Louisville Port of Entry. In just this past week, CBP officers have seized several dangerous drugs, counterfeit designer apparel and counterfeit currency-a total of 133 shipments containing illegal materials.

 

Many inspected packages reveal illegal contents that are concealed to smuggle their product through the mail system. Fentanyl was found in two different shipments originating from Mexico.

 

One shipment concealed Butyr Fentanyl within an art craft, while the other contained more than 1 kg of Fentanyl concealed in a doll. This seizure was just one of the 89 shipments containing narcotics Louisville CBP seized last week. CBP officers also seized a total of USD 4.45 million in counterfeit currency (cj)
