TUCSON – Federal authorities say they recently seized 30,000 fentanyl pills and more than $100,000 worth of other drugs during an operation in Arizona.
According to the U.S. Department of Interior, the operation was related to a Bureau of Indian Affairs Drug Enforcement joint investigation into large amounts of fentanyl pills from a Mexican drug trafficking organization.
Investigators say the drugs were being transported into the U.S. through Points of Entry located on the Tohono O’odham Nation.
Authorities say three non-Indian subjects were taken into custody during the operation.
