Feds raid drug 'super tunnel' with railway on U.S.-Mexico border

An underground drug tunnel that was about 800 yards long and ran from a Tijuana warehouse to a San Diego warehouse was raided. This tunnel has electricity, lighting, tracks, and everything needed to transport drugs between countries. Authorities found 12 tons of marijuana which has a street value of 6 million dollars! An undercover agent busted the dealers as he acted like he was gathering the marijuana and transporting dirt between the tunnels. When he found out they were going to transfer the marijuana from one warehouse to another is when he busted them. 22 people were arrested and this was the 10th tunnel found in the last 10 years in the same area. Really is fascinating when you think about how this is done.
