CBP officers found nearly five pounds of testosterone 17 heptanoate in these two bags of cat food from Hong Kong.
Also on March 9, CBP officers inspected a parcel that contained two bags of cat food. Inside the two bags, CBP officers discovered a white powdery substance and identified it as Testosterone 17 Heptanoate, a Schedule III Controlled Substance. The shipment weighed 2.15 kilograms, or about four pounds, 12 ounces. The parcel arrived that same day from Hong Kong and was destined to an address in Philadelphia.
CBP officers screen international travelers and cargo and search for illicit narcotics, unreported currency, weapons, counterfeit consumer goods, prohibited agriculture, and other illicit products that could potentially harm the American public, U.S. businesses, and our nation’s safety and economic vitality.
“Customs and Border Protection will continue to examine express delivery parcels and seize illicit products, such as these steroids and testosterone, when we encounter it,” said Joseph Martella, CBP’s Area Port Director for the Area Port of Philadelphia. “CBP officers remain vigilant in enforcing our nation’s laws and in intercepting dangerous products that are likely manufactured in unregulated and unsanitary facilities that may potentially harm American consumers.”
CBP seized an average of 3,707 pounds of narcotics every day across the United States last year. Learn more about what CBP accomplished during "A Typical Day" in 2019.
CBP's border security mission is led at ports of entry by CBP officers from the Office of Field Operations. Please visit CBP Ports of Entry to learn more about how CBP’s Office of Field Operations secures our nation’s borders. Learn more about CBP at www.CBP.gov.
