MUNICH, GERMANY - Roughly $1.2 million worth of cocaine nearly went undetected, as staff at a logistics company in Germany at first threw away the banana crates containing the packages. After realizing what the packages were, customs officials were quickly alerted.

Almost 10 pounds of cocaine were uncovered after the fruit logistics company in Erding, Germany, reported the discovery. According to a report from ABC News, police initially determined that the drugs had been left there by subcontractors who gave no thought to the “foreign objects” wrapped in tape inside the banana crates.

Customs officials from Munich reported that the crates were shipped from Ecuador via the Netherlands. As of today, June 1, no more packages have been reported or found.
