Famous Chef Stopped At LAX Bringing 40 Piranhas Into The U.S.

Virgilio Martinez, the chef-owner of Central restaurant in Lima, Peru, was stopped at Los Angeles International Airport for trying to bring 40 vacuum-sealed, frozen piranhas into the US. Martinez had hoped to serve the fish at an LA food festival. He said that said customs officers went into a "panic" when they opened his bag and they pulled him into an interrogation room.
