Customs and Border Protection officers say they were tipped off by inconsistencies in Rasheed Adewale Martins' story while he was being interviewed at the airport.
An X-ray revealed that he had foreign objects inside his body.
After several days of ingesting laxatives, Martins passed the 97 thumb-sized pellets that weighed 3 pounds, 2 ounces, (1,431.6 grams), which have a combined street value of about $100,000, officials say.
