Mexico Finds 2 Border Tunnels Leading from Tijuana Into U.S.
December 13, 2016 — Mexican police and soldiers have discovered two tunnels in the border city of Tijuana that lead into California.

The tunnels were found in an area of warehouses across from Otay Mesa. Prosecutors said Monday that one of the tunnels reached to San Diego, California, and the other was unfinished.

The Attorney General's Office said the tunnels were apparently used by the Sinaloa drug cartel to move drugs into the United States. It said it found the tunnels after the U.S. consulate in Tijuana determined the tunnels were being reactivated after apparently falling into disuse.

'KFC drug tunnel' ran from US into Mexico
24 Aug.`18 - The 600ft (180m) passageway ended at a trap door under a bed in a home in Mexico, say US officials.

US authorities have found a secret drug tunnel stretching from a former KFC in the state of Arizona to Mexico. The 600ft (180m) passageway was in the basement of the old restaurant in San Luis, leading under the border to a home in San Luis Rio Colorado. Authorities made the discovery last week and have arrested the southern Arizona building's owner. They were alerted to the tunnel after the suspect, Ivan Lopez, was pulled over, according to KYMA News.

The tunnel is suspected to have been used to shuffle drugs from Mexico into the US​

Investigators say the containers held 118kg (260lb) of methamphetamine, six grams of cocaine, 3kg of fentanyl, and 21kg of heroin.
