A brother and sister who allegedly tried to smuggle 513 pounds of marijuana inside pieces of furniture were arrested Friday at the Paso del Norte Bridge, Customs and Border Protection officials said Tuesday. The drugs, in 460 bundles, were stashed inside a sofa and other furniture in the bed of a 2001 Dodge Ram pickup, officials said.
The driver, Miriam Molina Macias, 31, and the passenger, Molina Macias’ brother German Molina Macias, 28, both of Juárez, were arrested. Molina Macias’ 11-year-old son was turned over to a relative.
