LARGE DRUG TUNNEL FOUND IN TIJUANA
Mexican authorities discovered a large drug tunnel under construction a
block from the U.S. border in Tijuana.
Officials said the tunnel, found Tuesday, was more than 60 feet deep and 10
feet in diameter. They said it ran under a removable concrete floor in an
empty warehouse next to a home near Otay Mesa, a border crossing for trucks.
Officials said the tunnel had not yet crossed into U.S. territory.
Authorities were searching for the owner of the property.
