Officials say the shipment originated from China and was destined for the Sinaloa cartel in Mexico.

“For far too long, the Mexican drug cartels have raked in billions of dollars at the expense of our local communities, leaving nothing but addiction, death and despair in their wake,” said ICE special agent Chad Plantz. “This initiative provides HSI with a game-changing method to stay one step ahead of the cartels by disrupting the flow of chemicals that they depend on to produce illicit narcotics.”

The Sinaloa cartel is infamous for its violence—engaging in shootouts, kidnappings, torture, and murders, often targeting officials. It controls drug trafficking across various parts of Central America and many areas of Mexico, including the border city of Tijuana, just across from San Diego, according to U.S. officials.
