ICYMI: The amount of fentanyl pills seized at the southern border in Arizona drastically increased in August, from already historically high numbers.
Over the weekend, U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers assigned to the Port of Nogales made two significant seizures. The combined total was 1.57 million fentanyl pills, 114 pounds of cocaine, 13 pounds of heroin and 2 pounds of fentanyl powder, according to Customs and Border Protection.

Toward the end of July, Nogales port seizures had exceeded 5 million fentanyl pills so far this fiscal year, which only had two months to go, according to Nogales Port Director Michael Humphries.
The amount of fentanyl smuggled across the border has increased as Americans’ addiction to it has increased. Ports of entry in Arizona saw record-breaking amounts of fentanyl seized in July, at 567 pounds, a 318% increase from June. Cocaine seizures at ports in July slightly decreased in Arizona at 60 pounds.
