Border Patrol agents shut down the construction of a 2,918-foot-long tunnel connecting Tijuana and San Diego with the aid of Department of Homeland Security officials and Mexican authorities.
At a depth of about 50 feet, a roughly half-mile-long tunnel connecting a home inside the Nueva Tijuana neighborhood with a commercial warehouse across the border in San Diego County has been uncovered by federal authorities.
