Agents disrupt meth smuggling attempt
El Centro Sector U.S. Border Patrol agents arrested a U.S. citizen they allege attempted to smuggle methamphetamine Saturday night.
The incident occurred about 10 p.m., when agents encountered a vehicle at the Dillion Road exit near Interstate 10 and Highway 86. During the encounter, a K-9 team alerted to the rear of the vehicle leading to the discovery of four black duffle bags in the back seat.
The bags reportedly contained a total of 131 vacuum-sealed bags whose contents tested positive for methamphetamine. The total weight of the methamphetamine was 164.67 pounds with an estimated value of $444,420.
