How did they find it?
That's the question that is running through my mind as I follow the events in my hometown of Lynden, Washington. A group of three were arrested in connection with a tunnel discovered running from Langley B.C. to a house here in Lynden... I wish I knew the details--like do they run sensor system that detects underground activity or did they bust it through undercover work. No matter...I'm sure they would prefer to keep that out of the public view--no use giving away their methods.
Another interesting thought: that sure is a lot of hard digging for one trip and then a bust. And how did they go about digging the thing!? Where did they put that hunk of dirt?
Have any other questions? I certainly do.

I know! Also living in Washhington, I can't believe the people who suspected them didn't turn the house in. Oh well, it is a good thing the found it at least!
Sounds like it was going on for a while. They might have had connections for resources from their customers to complete the job in secrecy. Maybe they were high on their own product and were chatting to the wrong person.
Hey Mark! This is Cassi from the Burlington OCRC.(just in case u were wondering).
that is awesome...I have always found such escapes facinating and wish there were more details in the article!
Sweet a tunnel underground. I almost wish they didn't get caught. Oh yes Mark I do have a question. Why would someone dig a tunnel from Langley to Lynden?
Gloria- The opinion that is going around the office where I work is that the tunnel was for drug running. But it is just an opinion.
Dude! I wanna do that! Yeah! Woah! That would be sooo cool! Uh-huh. That's right.
Oh yeah. The tunnel was secretly dug by Cassie, Tasha, and me so that we could see our friends in Langley and avoid the smelly Aldergrove border crossing. Darn cows.
I heard on the news that the tunnel was dug to bring pot across the border into the States, and that the police actually knew about it from almost the beginning. They waited until it was completed and the first load was being brought across before making arrests. The Canadian police found it, I believe, and shared the info with the American police, who actually made the arrests.

Gotta love it when reporters check the spelling - makes you wonder about the facts eh? At least he was right on the spelling of "Washington".
I remember one time I was quoted in a newspaper and I didn't even say it - the reporter had said it to me.
If they were smart enough to build the tunnel you think they could have been smart enough to conceal the dirt a wee bit better, no? Like Cassi said - perhaps they were a touch too familiar with their own 'product'.
Cassi, thanks for the id...I almost mistook you for tasha's sister.
