Last week, the U.S. Customs and Border Protection and Office of Field Operations officers found $12 million worth of cocaine.

According to a news release, the drugs were found Friday inside a 2016 Stoughton trailer at the Colombia-Solidarity Bridge, which connects Texas to the Mexican state of Nuevo Laredo.

Authorities found the drugs when doing a second inspection of the trailer carrying baby wipes.

Over 1,532.65 pounds of cocaine in 1,935 packages were found during the search.

According to authorities, the drugs were packaged to resemble baby wipes and had an estimated street value of $11,818,400.

“Officers assigned to CBP cargo facilities ensure effective border security by preventing and countering the flow of suspected narcotics entering the country,” said Port of Entry Director Alberto Flores.

“This seizure is a prime example of border security management and how it helps prevent dangerous narcotics from reaching our communities,” he added.

On Twitter, the director of Field Operations for CBP, Randy Howe, described the moment as a “colossal, record-setting seizure.”
