EL PASO, Texas (Border Report) – A federal grand jury has returned a multi-count indictment against a man who allegedly tried to bring 105 pounds of methamphetamines across Gateway International Bridge in Brownsville.

Galindo, who according to court documents previously engaged in the transportation of unauthorized migrants in the United States and illegal vehicle exports to Mexico, was sent to a secondary inspection area when he attempted to return to the U.S. from the Mexican border city of Matamoros in a 2019 Dodge Charger with Texas license plates.
