(WHDH) — Sixteen people were arrested Thursday after a drug bust in Spain uncovered six tons of cocaine that was concealed in a shipment of bananas, officials said.
Spain’s National Police intercepted the shipment from Costa Rica at an industrial warehouse in the southern city of Malaga, according to a statement released by the agency.
Officers later raided 20 properties, arresting 16 people, while seizing more than $340,000 and several firearms.
Officials shared a video of the bust on social media.
