Forty rounds of “the best self-defense ammo during a zombie apocalypse” marked for Honduras was intercepted at the Port of Wilmington, U.S. Customs and Border Protection announced.
The box of Zombie Terminator .38-caliber ammunition was found Tuesday during a joint examination of outbound shipping containers at the port.
Officers initially detected an anomaly during an X-ray examination of a shipment of household goods destined to Honduras. Officers discovered the anomaly was a box of ammo.
“Ultimately, Customs and Border Protection does not want illegally exported ammunition ending up in the hands of criminals or criminal organizations who could use that ammo to hurt innocent victims,” Keith Fleming, acting director of field operations for CBP’s Baltimore Field Office, said in a press release.
It is illegal to export firearms, weapons parts and ammunition without a federal license and permit from the U.S. Department of Commerce or the U.S. Department of State.
