Tucson, Ariz. — During a busy Presidents’ Day weekend, U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers at ports of entry in Arizona stopped 14 attempts to smuggle narcotics into the U.S., arresting 14 people and seizing more than 800 pounds of illicit drugs.

CBP officers at the DeConcini port of entry in Nogales arrested a 25-year-old woman from Nogales, Sonora Feb. 16 after finding 38 pounds of marijuana hidden inside the back seat of a 1996 Buick Regal.

That afternoon, officers at the land border port arrested a 50-year-old woman from Culiacan, Sinaloa after finding 28 pounds of cocaine hidden in the front fenders of a 1974 Plymouth sedan.
