A teenager from Mexico died after drinking liquid methamphetamine, which he claimed to United States Customs and Border Protection agents was juice, according to newly released surveillance video footage.

Cruz Marcelino Velazquez Acevedo, 16, from Tijuana was attempting to enter the U.S. at the San Ysidro Port of Entry near San Diego on Nov. 18, 2013, when officers asked him to drink bottles of amber-colored liquid in his backpack.
