Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers made a $10 million drug bust on Monday during an inspection of a commercial tractor trailer transporting cabbage at the Pharr Port of Entry in Texas. The shipment was found to be hiding a multimillion-dollar secret as agents cracked open the crates of cabbage to reveal large quantities of fentanyl and other illicit substances. The discovery was made after CBP officers used X-ray scanning technology to identify potential anomalies within the cargo. The bust is being described as one of the largest at the Texas border in recent years.
