BALTIMORE (AP) -- U.S. Customs and Border Protection says its officers discovered nearly 128 pounds of cocaine inside a shipping container in Baltimore.
The container was from Colon, Panama. CBP says it's the largest such seizure in Baltimore since 2007.
The container was full of car parts, but CBP officers say they spotted something unusual with imaging technology. Inside, they found two gym bags, each containing 50 bricks of powder cocaine.
The street value of the drug is estimated at $4 million.

If they made it that easy for them to find this small amount. I BET you that what they did not find was the 1000 or more pounds that they missed. A old trick that has been going on for years. Give the Law a small amount to tease them and make them smile and slide the rest through the back door.

That's still a lot of 'blow'
