A drug smuggling drone crashes
in Mexico-California border; Police said.
The ill-fated drone a report
said, was loaded with illicit methamphetamine.
Tijuana
police spokesman Jorge Morrua said authorities were alerted after the drone
fell Tuesday night near the San Ysidro crossing at Mexico's border with
California.
Six
packets of the drug, weighing more than six pounds, were taped to the six-propeller
remote-controlled aircraft. Morrua said authorities are investigating where the
flight originated and who was controlling it.
He said it was not the first time
they had seen drones used for smuggling drugs across the border.
Other innovative means of carrying drugs across border include catapult, ultralight
aircraft and tunnels.
