Border agents in B.C. have seized 70 kilograms of cocaine in what has been called the largest cocaine seizure at the Osoyoos port of entry.

The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) said the drugs were found in the truck bed of a pick-up driven by a Canadian citizen who was returning from a trip to the United States.
