Also this morning, Corozal police intercepted a vehicle that was carrying 2 illegal, high-powered weapons, and a large quantity of marijuana. Here's what the commissioner had to say about that second, successful interdiction at the border:

Chester Williams- Commissioner of Police

"Likewise this morning the Corozal district police were on operation when they saw two individuals. Upon seeing the police the individuals ran leaving a vehicle behind. The police searched the vehicle which is a GMC pickup truck double cab. Inside the vehicle police found one AK 47 rifle and one M4 carbon rifle and several bales of what we believe to be Mexican high grade weed. The police are still in the process of processing the weed or the cannabis and as soon as we have the exact amount of kilos and weight we will be sharing that with the media."
