44 pounds of cocaine-soaked cereal seized in Cincinnati port

Customs and Border Protection officers working this month in the Port of Cincinnati seized 44 pounds of cereal flakes that may have been “frosted,” just not with sugar.

The agency’s “narcotic detector dog” Bico was the first to alert that something was amiss with the shipment from Peru, officials said.

When officers opened a box marked “Corn Flakes,” the contents included a white powder and grayish coating, according to a news release.
