Post U.S., Mexico unearth 'highly sophisticated' drug tunnel

The tunnel, which is equipped with electricity, ventilation and rail tracks, was shut down Wednesday night after being discovered under the border between San Diego and near San Diego and Tijuana, just over the border in Mexico. Three people were arrested, and authorities seized more than eight tons of marijuana and 325 pounds of cocaine, marking the first time cocaine has been recovered in connection with a local drug tunnel, said the US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency.
