Following intelligence operations, members of the Specialized Land Border Security Corps (CESFRONT) intercepted two suspicious box trucks which had just entered Dominican territory via the Dajabón border bridge. The two trucks were taken to the Beller fortress to be requisitioned, in the presence of the public prosecutor, members of the National Directorate of Drug Control (DNCD) and other State intelligence services accompanied by a canine unit.

During the search of the first van registered Z507521 driven by Freddy Caraballo were discovered in a fitted cache 124 boxes of cigarettes while in the other white van without registration driven by a Haitian national identified as Kelin Joseph, 178 other hidden boxes were discovered, for a total of 302 cartons (151,000 cigarette packs) of Capital, Haisaimer and Gold City brands.

The trucks and contraband goods were seized and the two drivers were arrested and handed over to the Public Prosecutor's Office represented by Judge Luz Mercedes Peña, Deputy Prosecutor of the Province of Dajabón for judicial proceedings.
