You'd be amazed at what comes through the UPS Worldport Hub in Louisville, and not all of it is legal.

Wednesday, the U.S. Customs Office based at the airport says last month they seized more than 35 pounds of cocaine, ranging from eight ounces to 20 pounds.

It was hidden in things like hair care products and video games and came from Central America.

It was all worth more than one million dollars. No arrests have been made.

U.S. Customs Authorities released pictures Wednesday night showing some of the ways drug smugglers attempted to get cocaine into the United States.
