Federal authorities found $27 million in undeclared cash Saturday on a ship set to travel from Puerto Rico to the U.S. Virgin Islands, U.S. Customs and Border Protection announced in a press release.
CBP inspected the MV Norma H II Voyage 818 before it left San Juan for St. Thomas. A dog sniffed out the cash in a cargo box, and authorities found 34 boxes full of the suspicious bills.
The agency seized the cash, but no one has been arrested in the case.
Legal currency can be transported if properly declared under US law, CBP regional director Gregory Alvarez said in the release. Transnational Criminal Organizations seek to conceal proceeds and move it as part of their criminal activities.
Its a dog-eat-dog world.
Note: Last line! Dog comms?

Its ok for Democrats to:
-Protest
-Riot
-Loot
-AND illegally go to a hair salon
But they wont let you:
-Go to church
-Go to work
-Go to school
-Or go to the same hair salon

A big deal! with or without the dog comms, IMO.
So we have cash sniffing dogs...
