Earlier this month, eight-year MTA veteran Francis Abankwa pulled his Bx2 bus up to a regular stop on the Bronx’s Grand Concourse so that Boubacar Traore — a smuggler who had arranged to give him a suitcase full of drugs from Ghana — could board, the Daily News reports. Unfortunately, Traore had already been busted by federal agents at Kennedy Airport, and the authorities were waiting to arrest both men when they arrived at Inwood’s Kingsbridge Depot at the end of the day. At least they let Abankwa finish his route.
