In early November 1995, on this dry lagoon, a mysterious and unmarked jet plane made a pre-dawn landing and was greeted by 30 men wearing Mexican federal police uniforms. These "police" helped unload the plane's cargo and then tried in vain to conceal the plane by dismantling it and burying its parts with a bulldozer. When the local authorities appeared on the scene to investigate, the men in the federal uniforms ordered them away. The Mexican officials now have admitted that the jet plane was carrying several tons of cocaine worth approximately $2,000,000. The men and the cocaine remain unaccounted for. The remnants of the plane, at least in mid-December 1995, could still be seen protruding from this lagoon.
