On Nov. 5, at 1:30 a.m., a Coastal Division California Highway Patrol officer and his K9 partner Rae, made an enforcement stop on a Ford F-150 pickup for a traffic violation on SR-99 near Plainsburg, in Merced County.
After the traffic stop, officers identified two people in the pickup and developed reasonable suspicion to deploy the K9 Rae. K9 Rae indicated narcotics may be inside the vehicle.
Officers searched the vehicle and located several large cardboard boxes in the pickup bed. Inside were 117 individually wrapped, 1-pound packages of methamphetamine.
Officers arrested the two people in the pickup and they were booked into the Merced County Jail.
