Customs canine sniffs out cocaine soup at Dulles | Washington Examiner

Customs canine sniffs out cocaine soup at Dulles | Washington Examiner: "U.S. Customs and Border Patrol officers at Washington Dulles International Airport stopped more than four pounds of cocaine hidden in dry soup packages from entering the country after their drug-sniffing dog Demi picked up the scent, a CBP spokesman said. Jose Acevedo, a 41-year-old Carlisle, Pa., resident, was returning from a trip to El Salvador late Thursday when customs officers referred him to a secondary inspection.
As officers examined his baggage, the dog's barking alerted them to drugs hidden inside dried chicken soup packets. Acevedo was arrested on drug-trafficking charges after officers pulled out the four pounds, five ounces of cocaine from the soup packages."
