DAYTON, Ohio, April 27 (UPI) -- U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers in Ohio said they seized 17 pounds of heroin that was hidden inside of hollowed-out books.
Customs spokesman Brett Sturgeon said the books, containing $1 million worth of the drug, were seized from four separate shipments that passed through the DHL Express hub April 17 and 22 in Wilmington, Ohio, the Dayton (Ohio) Daily news reported Monday.
Sturgeon said the packages originated from Tehran and were bound for Toronto.
No arrests have been made in the case, authorities said.
