Costa Rica seizes 1.4 tons of cocaine
July 29th, 2009 | by admin |Costa Rican authorities seized Tuesday about 1.4 tons of cocaine being carried in a truck and arrested two people involved in the shipment, police said.
The drug packets were moist sandy, which led the authorities to suspect that they were picked up on some Pacific beach for subsequent storage in Costa Rica.
The police detained the Costa Rican who was driving the truck and the Dominican who accompanied him.
Two weeks ago, the Costa Rican authorities and the US navy seized 1.3 tons of cocaine stashed in a ship and arrested four Columbians on board the ship.
