TUCSON – On Tuesday, U.S. Border Patrol agents discovered fentanyl in a sedan’s air conditioning unit at the Interstate 19 Immigration Checkpoint near Amado, Arizona.
Tucson Sector agents encountered the 1999 Lincoln at the checkpoint around 4:45 p.m. after a drug-sniffing dog detected the drugs.
In their subsequent search of the car and its air conditioning system, agents seized a bag of blue pills that later tested positive for fentanyl. Agents also seized a GPS tracking device they believe smugglers used to track the vehicle’s location.
