It's what they call the biggest drug bust in the history of Mexico.
Eleven people were arrested yesterday in the city of Tijuana after a pre-dawn gun battle between members of the drug cartel and police and soldiers - two people were injured.Daily Mail
The marijuana was found in six cargo containers in a warehouse, wrapped in 10,000 packages and has a street value of £215million.
It was discovered after police on a routine patrol intercepted a convoy of vehicles escorting a tractor-trailer that had left the warehouse, officials said.
A shootout ensued before the 11 arrests in the city, which is across the U.S. border from San Diego, California.
Police and soldiers, acting on information from the suspects, raided the warehouse and two homes, where smaller amounts of marijuana were found.
