Last updated 1/23/2020 at 1:14pm
A hidden stash of methamphetamine was sniffed out by Border Patrol canines at the Highway 86 checkpoint Tuesday Nov. 26.
Agents say the dog alerted them to a Jeep Cherokee, which was waived to secondary inspection.
During the inspection, agents found 89 packages of methamphetamine hidden inside the SUV’s floorboards.
The meth weighed slightly more than 68-pounds, with a street value of more than $129,000.
The driver, a U.S. citizen, the vehicle, and the drugs were turned over to the Drug Enforcement Administration.
