Costa Rican police seized over two tonnes of cocaine in San Francisco de Dos Rios, in the southern suburbs of the capital, San Jose.

The drugs were found late Wednesday in a storage facility belonging to an international drug gang that was shipping the load to the US in containers, officials said.

Two Costa Ricans and two South Americans - whose nationalities were not revealed - were arrested in the raid.
