SAN LUIS, ARIZONA, US – What could be the most sophisticated drug tunnel in history, was detected last Tuesday on the border area of San Luis, Arizona, and San Luis Rio Colorado, Sonora.

The conduit traveled a distance of approximately 1300 feet, had a ventilation system, as well as water and electricity lines, and a rail system. It was detected after several days of excavations.

The investigations began in mid-July when a sinkhole was detected in the border wall, confirmed the Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

On the US side, the tunnel reached the 1300 block of the Los Olivos neighborhood, passing the border to Mexico at 10th Street and Carlos G. Calles Avenue. The total longitude sized about 400 meters.
