3,300 warheads, missile machinery found at Jamaican port
By Carol J. Williams, November 29, 2013, 10:24 a.m.
Jamaican authorities have seized 3,300 warheads and a missile-making machine at the port of Kingston and sought help from international police in tracking the shipper, Jamaican media reported Friday.
The unauthorized arms shipment was discovered Thursday afternoon in a police and customs operation carried out at a berth of Kingston Wharves, the RJR News site reported.
A high-level investigation has been launched, and Jamaican police have asked for assistance from international law enforcement, the news service said.
It was unclear from any of the reports of the seized ordnance how large the warheads were, what type of launch device they were intended to arm or whether the shipment's end destination was Jamaica or another country.

LOL, that's exactly what I was thinking.........
I'm sure this only came to light after the "shipper" told the Jamaican police "NO" to a mandatory bribe......
