CBP Chicago Intercepts Prohibited Items from Passenger at O'Hare International Airport

U.S. Customs and Border Patrol officers at a major airport in the United States intercepted unusual items from a passenger arriving from Africa. The passenger from Congo mistakenly believed that the food they were carrying was allowed into the country at O’Hare International Airport. However, CBP Chicago discovered 11 pounds of beans infested with pests, 17 pounds of unidentified plants, and four pounds of nonhuman primate meat, specifically a small monkey carcass. These items were prohibited from entering the country and were confiscated and disposed of by authorities. Viewer discretion is advised due to the nature of the images.
