Dulles, VA (WTVR) – Something unexpected was found in soup containers at Dulles International Airport in Northern Virginia: cocaine.

Nearly six pounds of drugs were found in not just soup containers, but also hidden inside pieces of candy at the airport on Saturday.

The drugs were disguised so well, that it took a second inspection before customs agents found it.

The man carrying the drugs was deported. He’s not allowed to return to the U.S. for five years.
