[FoxNews] The U.S. Customs and Border Protection office at the Pharr International Bridges Cargo Facility in Texas has intercepted over a million dollars in alleged fentanyl.

On Thursday, officers assigned to the cargo facility encountered a commercial tractor-trailer arriving from Mexico.

An officer referred the vehicle for further inspection.

After utilizing non-intrusive inspection equipment and screening by a canine team, CBP found 19 packages of alleged fentanyl that had been concealed in the tractor.

The packages weighed more than 44 pounds and are reportedly worth $1,036,000.
