Man carrying $10 million in U.S. currency arrested at Tijuana airport
[LATIMES] A man carrying $10 million in U.S. currency was nabbedDrop the gat, Rocky, or you're a dead 'un! Friday at Tijuana's A.L. Rodriguez International Airport, authorities said. The man was taken into custody after he tried to pick up the money ‐ bills of different denominations that had been stuffed into 31 white plastic sacks, according to a statement from Mexico's Federal Police. He was unable to show documentation proving the shipment's legal origin, police said.
