REYNOSA, MEXICO -- Loads of cocaine and marijuana went up in flames in Reynosa Thursday.

Mexican authorities intentionally set the fire.

They held the drug burn to get rid of hundreds of pounds of pot and cocaine confiscated this past year in Tamaulipas.

The blaze was the result of 17 separate drug seizures across the border.
