Border Patrol agents in San Diego found a sophisticated cross-border smuggling tunnel that connects California to Tijuana, Mexico. The tunnel reportedly extended more than 1,000 feet into the United States from Mexico.

San Diego Sector Tunnel Team agents discovered a cross-border tunnel in April that appeared to still be under construction, according to a statement from U.S. Customs and Border Protection. The agents found that the tunnel crossed under the Otay Mesa Port of Entry.

The sophisticated tunnel contained a rail track to quickly move cargo from Mexico into the United States, CBP photos revealed. Officials carefully mapped the tunnel, which they say extended more than 2,900 feet. The tunnel measured 42 inches in height and 28 inches in width and was about 50 feet underground at its deepest point.

Officials say the tunnel appeared to be headed to a nearby commercial warehouse. In addition to the smuggling track, the tunnel had an electrical wiring system, lighting, and ventilation systems.

Based on the track and dimensions of the tunnel, officials believe the tunnel was designed to move large quantities of drugs into the United States from Mexico.
