Cocaine Worth Over $13 Million Seized At Sangster Airport
Detectives assigned to the Narcotics Division recorded a multimillion-dollar cocaine seizure at the Sangster International Airport in Montego Bay, St James on Wednesday.
The police report that about 1:30 p.m., police personnel were conducting checks on an outgoing flight destined for Philadelphia in the United States.
During the operation, the police say a tool box was searched and two bags with a total of 10 packages each containing substance resembling cocaine were found.
According to the police, the drug weighted approximately of 22 pounds with an estimated street value of over $13 million.
Additionally, the detectives are asking Abrano Reid, a ramp cart operator of Norwood, St James, who they believe can assist with their investigations, to report to the Summit Police Station in the parish by 6:00 p.m today.
So another worker in philly would have removed the package from the plane? Just wondering how that would have made it through customs on the other side.
