$1 Million in
Backpacks
Five Nicaraguans, who
were apparently trying
to enter Costa Rica
illegally, exchanged
shots with two Costa
Rican policemen at the
northern border, near
Los Chiles, and then ran
away, leaving behind
four backpacks.
The Costa Rican law
enforcement agents were
surprised by the fact
that the backpacks
contained $1 million
cash.
According to Costa Rican
officials, the money is
linked to the traffic of
drugs and arms in the
area. |
