U.S. Border Patrol agents have uncovered and disabled a large-scale narcotics smuggling tunnel linking Tijuana to the San Diego area. The uncompleted tunnel extended more than 1,000 feet inside the U.S. and was highly sophisticated. In early April, Border Patrol agents assigned to the San Diego Sector Tunnel Team discovered the tunnel as it was actively under construction. The Tunnel Team made entry into the tunnel, which ran under a portion of the Otay Mesa Port of Entry. Based on preliminary indications, the tunnel had a projected exit point near or within a nearby commercial warehouse space.

Sophisticated? Ventilation, rail cars...? It’s a hole.

[Jonny7797]

They’ve found many tunnels there over the years. Cartels never stop.

Is this the same tunnel reported ad nauseum for the last three days? Or something new?

[del griffith]

Again?

[Veto!]

Reminds me of the old song, “Can You Dig It” by The Mock Turtles.

It’s on youtube.

How many have not been found?

[lurk]

Run strings of line charges down the length of it and put in a few game cameras.

That will cut a lot of drugs off......

Something tells me an uncompleted tunnel won't have too many drugs to cut off just yet..

Are the border patrol old enough to remember this:

Not impressive. They should have waited for the completion of the tunnel to seize some drugs as well.
