Following up on information gained from a tip submitted to police, Southwest Patrol CRT/Deployment officers located a suspect believed to be trafficking illegal narcotics in the 4300 block of Communications Drive on October 1, 2025. Their investigation led to a traffic stop, where officers discovered 162 kilograms of methamphetamine, approximately $100,000 in currency, and a handgun in the car. One person was detained during the investigation, which is ongoing.
“Getting any amount of drugs off the street is a win and getting more than 160 kilos of meth off the street is a major success,” said Deputy Chief Kylee Hawks, the South Patrol Group commander. “Knowing this came from a tip means people want to help us make a difference in their community.”
