Four Texas men attempted to conceal $1 million in cocaine - 50 kilograms,

more than 110 pounds - in a shipment of mangos before they were arrested

in Fairburn Wednesday by Fayette County drug agents working undercover with

the Federal Drug Enforcement Agency, police said.

All four suspects were arrested but their names are not being released because

the investigation is ongoing, said Lt. Col. Bruce Jordan of the Fayette County

Sheriff's Department.

"We had information that a person was coming from Texas to do a large-level

drug transaction," Jordan said.

Surveillance teams followed the chief suspect once he flew into Atlanta,

tracking the van he rented to the hotel where he stayed overnight, Jordan

added.

The next evening, that suspect drove to the truck stop in Fairburn off

Ga. Highway 74 next to the McDonald's, just north of the Fayette County

line, Jordan said.

Agents moved in to make the arrests after the suspects began unloading the

cocaine from the rental van to the tractor trailer.

The rental van took off from the truck stop parking lot, but its occupants

were caught after a pursuit by the DEA agents, Jordan said.

The sheriff's department will attempt to seize the tractor trailer,

a refrigerated model, under forfeiture laws, Jordan said. Those laws allow

law enforcement agencies to seize material used in the trafficking of drugs.
