EL PASO, Texas —
U.S. Customs and Border Protection on Monday announced the seizures at El Paso. Officials said the total haul topped 934 pounds, including 437 pounds confiscated Saturday night.
CBP said a drug-sniffing dog alerted officers to an SUV at the Paso Del Norte International Bridge. The marijuana was in bundles in a floor compartment.
Officers detained the driver, 34-year-old Julio Chavez Renova of Cuauhtémoc, Chihuahua, Mexico. He faces federal charges including importation of a controlled substance and possession with intent to distribute a controlled substance. Renova remains in custody at the El Paso County Jail and is being held without bond.
