One person was arrested during the raids early Saturday, but was not identified in order to pursue other leads. The money was packed in more than 300 bundles of $100,000 each. $15 million was hidden behind a bathroom wall in one apartment in northern Bogota and the rest was found packed behind a kitchen wall in the other apartment. - --- MAP posted-by: Beth
