The Sonoma County Sheriff’s Office reported a police dog sniffed out 10 pounds of methamphetamine during the traffic stop
A California K-9 uncovered 10 pounds of methamphetamine in boxes of dog treats during a recent traffic stop, reported a Facebook post from the Sonoma County Sheriff’s Office.
According to the report, a sheriff’s deputy stopped a vehicle driving through Petaluma and during the traffic stop, the deputy learned the driver had a misdemeanor arrest warrant out of Mendocino County and was told there was a methamphetamine pipe in the vehicle. The deputy then had his K-9 partner sniff the vehicle for narcotics.
The dog alerted to dog treat boxes inside of the vehicle, the report said. The deputy then searched the vehicle and found dog treat boxes containing packages of methamphetamine, according to the Facebook post. The deputy also located additional packages of methamphetamine inside of a cat litter box, according to the post.
In total, there were packages (one-pound each) of methamphetamine in the vehicle, the sheriff’s office reported.
The suspect, Angelina Gutierrez, was booked into Sonoma County Jail for felony transportation of a controlled substance and her misdemeanor arrest warrant. A judge set her bail at $0, and she was later released from custody, the post concluded.
