U.S. Border Patrol agents with San Diego's sector seized a load of different narcotics hidden inside two child booster seats near San Diego County's northern border last week, according to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

On Nov. 19 at about 7 p.m., Border Patrol agents assigned to the San Clemente Border Patrol Station stopped and searched a vehicle as it was traveling north on Interstate 5 near the Basilone Road exit.

A Border Patrol canine alerted agents to the narcotics, leading them on a search of the vehicle's rear compartment, where agents discovered 11 packages of narcotics inside two child booster seats, according to the agency.

Agents took the narcotics, the vehicle, and the driver — who they say is a Mexican national — to a Border Patrol station for further processing.
