Cross-border tunnel links Mexicali to Calexico seized
U S authorities seized a cross-border tunnel stretching about 300 yards in Mexico and 100 yards in the United States from El Sarape restaurant in Mexicali to a Calexico home. The operation netted more than a ton of marijuana, led to four arrests, and marked the 12th completed tunnel found along California's border since 2006. The Calexico project cost about 240000 for the property and 86000 for the house, with the first tunnel shipment on Feb 28 resulting in a 1350 pound seizure in Los Angeles. Authorities say the tunnel lacked features of more sophisticated passages, and the probe remains ongoing.
