Ecstasy bust at Blue Water Bridge

Over 100 pounds of MDMA was seized in a bust last month at the Blue Water Bridge.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers in Port Huron were conducting inspections of inbound commercial cargo on July 25 when vacuum-sealed packages, weighing about 113 pounds, were discovered in a box among a shipment of legitimate goods.

Testing determined the substance was MDMA, commonly known as ecstasy.

The illicit cargo and commercial vehicle was seized.

Further details, including possible charges, were not immediately available.
