Feds find record long illegal drug tunnel in Nogales (kgun9)
The Nogales drug tunnel is with a length of 481 feet the largest drug tunnel ever found in the city which spans through two countries. The tunnel, which ran from one house in Nogales in Arizona to another house in Nogales in Sonora, Mexico, stretched 411 feet from the United States to the international border and continued 70 feet into Mexico. According to a Feb. 14, 2014, USA Today report, “the drug tunnel found Monday is the third uncovered in Nogales since December.”
Nogales is popular among drug smugglers because the two cities in both countries have large neighborhoods in close proximity. The underground drainage system connecting both border cities makes underground access between the two cities easy.
