New Authorities find longest tunnel under US-Mexico border

U.S. authorities on Wednesday announced the discovery of the longest smuggling tunnel ever found on the Southwest border, stretching more than three-quarters of a mile from an industrial site in Tijuana, Mexico, to the San Diego area.

The tunnel featured an extensive rail cart system, forced air ventilation, high voltage electrical cables and panels, an elevator at the tunnel entrance and a drainage system.

While there were no arrests, no drugs found at the site and no confirmed exit point in the U.S., the length — more than 14 football fields — stunned authorities.

“This one blows past (the second-longest),” said Lance LeNoir, a Border Patrol operations supervisor. “We never really thought they had the moxie to go that far. They continue to surprise me.”

The tunnel exposes limitations of President Donald Trump’s border wall, which stretches several feet underground in the area and is considered effective against small, crudely built tunnels often called “gopher holes.” The one announced Wednesday was found about 70 feet (21 meters) underground, well below the wall.

New They don't get it.
The money on the border wall would be far better spent helping Mexico improve its quality of life.

New That came out wrong.
I meant working to help equalise life and living standards on both sides of the border. The best borders are ones that are not really there because there's no reason to restrict passage across them.

New mexicans are not flooding accross the border, central americans
and a smattering of other nationalities are crushing the border. The Narcos bring a lot of money from the states but they are stingy in some cases but benevolent in some areas.
