SAN DIEGO — U.S. Customs and Border Protection says its officers seized $5 million worth of marijuana hidden in a tractor-trailer trying to cross the U.S.-Mexico border on Friday.

Officers used"non-intrusive inspection technology" to screen the vehicle in the examination area, and the screening showed anomalies that led CBP to conduct a more thorough inspection of the trailer. Officers tested the contents of those packages and confirmed it was marijuana. CBP says a total of 2,573.38 pounds of narcotics was seized from the shipment.
