A good Jamaican beef panty is hard to find but one filled with cocaine was fairly easy for U.S. Customs agents to detect.
According to NBC New York, authorities apprehended a woman traveling from her native country of Jamaica with $70,000 worth of cocaine hidden in a box of beef patties at John F. Kennedy International Airport.
During her pass through customs, officers too notice of a box of Tastee brand Jamaican beef patties. When they opened the box they found 12 duct-taped packages containing a white powder that tested positive for cocaine.
The unidentified woman will be changed in federal court with narcotics smuggling.
