A man was arrested at JFK International Airport in Queens, N.Y. last week after authorities found two pounds of heroin inside of his underwear.
According to the Associated Press, Ivan Vidal Forero got off a plane from Bogota, Colombia when U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents found two cylinders containing the drug during a private search. The Associated Press adds that the contents of the cylinders tested positive for heroin, which is said to be worth upwards of $61,000 on the street.
Following the discovery, Forero was charged with narcotics smuggling and placed in the custody of Homeland Security.
