A 50-pound cocaine haul was discovered today, hidden within the doors of a late model BMW during a routine border inspection in San Diego.US Border Protection issued a statement confirming the arrest of the driver, a 47-year-old Mexican national. Border agents noticed the suspect acting nervously as he tried to cross into the US, and deployed drug-sniffer dogs to take a whiff of the 2006 Beamer. After they confirmed an illicit scent, the car was dismantled. The coke found is said to be worth $471,000.
