(Dulles, VA)  —  For the second time in weeks, an alleged heroin smuggler has been arrested at Dulles International Airport.  Federal authorities say Yomade Aborishade had ingested 100 heroin pellets, weighing about four pounds with a street value of 129-thousand-dollars.  Aborishade, who arrived at Dulles from Ghana, was taken to an area hospital and was charged after authorities found the pellets.  Late last month, a man arriving at Dulles from Italy was busted, after allegedly trying to smuggle 88 ingested heroin pellets.
