U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers detained two Arizona men and a Mexican woman for allegedly trafficking more than 349 pounds of heroin, methamphetamine, cocaine and suspected fentanyl in three separates incidents at the border this weekend. Officials said Monday they detained 67-year-old Rio Rico, an Arizona man, at the Dennis DeConcini border crossing in Nogales after he attempted to enter the U.S. from Mexico on Saturday morning. A narcotics detection K9 alerted his handler that the man’s Jeep SUV needed further inspection. Later that evening, at the Mariposa border crossing in Nogales, CBP officers removed a total of 71 pounds of cocaine, meth, heroin and suspected fentanyl pills at an estimated worth of more than $898,000.
