Feds Seize $4 Million In Heroin At Newark Airport

NEWARK (AP) ― Customs and Border Protection agents say they uncovered $4 million in heroin concealed in Peruvian candy boxes at Newark Liberty International Airport.

Tuesday's discovery came three days after a Colombian citizen was arrested on charges of trying to smuggle $1 million dollars worth of liquid heroin through the airport.

In the latest incident, authorities say they were suspicious about the travel documents of a Spanish man who arrived on a flight from Peru.

Jose Rayuela-Lanuza was turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.
