On Sunday afternoon, a woman traveling back to the U.S. was stopped by airport security and they allegedly found thousands of dollars worth of cocaine in her vagina, according to the New York Post.

Shekira Thompson, a 24-year old U.S. citizen of Queens, N.Y., was traveling back to the U.S. from her home country of Jamaica. Officials were reported saying that Thompson was "sweating and acting very nervous" as she made her way through security.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers took her aside to check her. She went through a body X-ray scan that came back negative, but she soon confessed to authorities that she had cocaine inserted in her vagina, according to PIX 11. It was wrapped up in an egg form and was seized by authorities, who tested it and found it to be positive for cocaine. They reported that it weighed about half a pound with a street value reaching into $10,000.

"This seizure is just another example of our CBP officers being ever vigilant in protecting the United States from the distribution of these illicit drugs," said Robert E. Perez, the New York director of U.S. Customs and Border Protection's field operations.

Thompson has been charged with drug smuggling and is currently being held on Rikers Island with a $100,000 bond, according to the New York Daily News.
