BUENOS AIRES, Argentina — A Colombian accused of using submarines to smuggle 8 tons of cocaine to the United States is under arrest in Buenos Aires.

Argentine police say Ignacio Alvarez Meyendorff allegedly organized the submarine trips for Colombia’s Norte del Valle drug cartel.

Deputy Security Minister Miguel Robles said Tuesday that Alvarez was arrested Sunday with help from the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration when he arrived in Buenos Aires on a flight from Tahiti.

Also known by the nicknames “Old Man” and “Big Brother,” Alvarez now awaits extradition to New York.
