At the Hidalgo/Reynosa bridge a $2 million dollar cocaine bust leaves one man behind bars.

Border agents stopped a vehicle traveling into the U.S. from Reynosa and a narcotic sniffing dog found 62 pounds of cocaine hidden in a secret compartment in the vehicle's roof.

The 23 year-old driver is from Reynosa and was arrested on federal drug charges.
