CBP says agents seized 339 pounds of cocaine near the Ambassador Bridge port of entry.

“A Canada-bound commercial vehicle was selected for examination and a subsequent physical inspection conducted by officers revealed bricks of a white powdery substance concealed within two duffel bags and four moving boxes,” CBP said in a news release. “The illicit cargo was confirmed to be cocaine through subsequent testing.”
