Spanish police seized over 26 metric tons (30 U.S. tons) of hashish at the southern port of Algeciras on Monday, officials said, according to AP. The drugs were found hidden in a shipment of 22 large wooden boxes of frozen sardines, said spokesman Salvador Gomez of the Algeciras Civil Guard. The weight of the drugs made this one of the biggest busts to date in Spain, Gomez said. Authorities detained a 36-year-old person suspected of having ties with a trucking company. The person was not identified by name.
