It was a big weekend for Border Patrol agents who seized over $1.6 million worth of drugs in three separate actions.

Shortly after noon on Friday, a joint task force of various law enforcement agencies obtained a warrant and searched a vehicle suspected of smuggling narcotics. Agents discovered 540 vacuum-sealed packages that contained a total of nearly 518 pounds of methamphetamine. The street value of the drugs is nearly $1,140,00.

On Saturday at about 6:00 a.m. agents found approximately 25 pounds of fentanyl in a 2014 Fiat 500 after a traffic stop. The drugs are valued at over $295,000.

At 5:40 a.m. Monday, a Border Patrol K-9 Team alerted to a pickup truck at the Highway 86 I-immigration checkpoint. An inspection of the truck led to the discovery of 60 pounds of methamphetamine hidden in the bed of the vehicle. The drugs have a street value of $132,000.
