A couple was busted trying to contraband almost one million dollars worth of medicine. Documents obtained by Love News show that on Sunday couple German Antonio Lobos and Maribel De Leon were intercepted by customs officers on the San Antonio Road. The couple was in a White Chevrolet Silverado, transporting twenty-five boxes of medicine. These boxes contained Farmiver Infantil, cyrux misoprostol, Vitamin E tablets, and a wide range of medications.
