In a significant drug bust, federal agents uncovered over 2,300 pounds (1,043 kilograms) of methamphetamine concealed within a truck at the Atlanta State Farmers Market in Forest Park, Georgia. The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) hailed this operation as one of the largest seizures of its kind.
According to DEA Special Agent in Charge Robert Murphy, the agency received intelligence about a semitrailer transporting drugs across the Mexican border. Subsequently, agents were able to trace the illicit substances to the farmers market, where they were found hidden inside the truck.
