Burritos, not drugs
The Los Angeles Police Department arrested a man on Saturday for suspicion of trafficking narcotics, after they discovered 14 packages of methamphetamine disguised to look like tinfoil-wrapped burritos inside his car. The hefty packages were rolled up tight, but according to SCPR a nervous driver tipped them off that something may be amiss. In total the haul came in at over 25 pounds, as well as cash and at least one gun. Check out the LAPD’s photo from the bust here.
