A drug trafficker crashes into a local fruit stand only to be caught minutes later.
Border patrol agents had the trafficker on the run just before 3 o’clock this afternoon before the messy halt in La Havana.
“A car came screaming in, a truck, and it crashed through our stand threw all kinds things all over the place and I had just called one of the guys that works for us over to, to me. He had been standing right there. Thank god his life was saved. The lord took care of him,” says, Phillip Chavez/ fruit stand owner. This businessman says the suspect jumped a fence and ran off before agents apprehended him. Authorities confiscated close to 1,000lbs of narcotics aboard the f-150 used. With fruit scattered everywhere, Phillip Chavez says the damages to his business could reach the $30,000 mark.
