FORT ERIE, Ont.—Canadian authorities Thursday announced the seizure of $2.7 million (Canadian dollars) worth of cocaine from a truck crossing over the Peace Bridge from Buffalo.
The bust took place June 27 when a truck driver from Brampton, Ont., whose name was not released, was pulled over for a secondary examination. Canada Border Services agents discovered 20 kilos of cocaine concealed in a shipment of parts for school buses. The drugs were bundled into 20 brick-shaped packages hidden in two crates.
