Drug tunnel found
Military personnel and state police uncovered a drug tunnel Monday evening in a western Mexicali neighborhood.
According to media reports, the tunnel was found after a man reported to the emergency center that he and four other individuals were being held against their will to build the passageway.
The tunnel exits in a home near Tepic Street in the Colonia Santa Clara neighborhood, about 1.25 miles west of the port of entry.
According to the reports, the tunnel has between 67 and 80 yards long and was about 10 yards below ground.
The police arrested a man and rescued the five workers, who reportedly are from the state of Guerrero.
