U.S. Customs agents at BWI Airport pulled off a major bust, seizing 412 pounds of khat—a potent, amphetamine-like stimulant—hidden in unclaimed luggage.

Law enforcement is ramping up efforts to intercept dangerous substances before they reach unsuspecting users, while investigators dig into how this shipment slipped through and who orchestrated it.
