A mess of meth

Making a drug bust in San Antonio is not really strange, but the quantity involved in this story is a bit unusual.
The bust was a joint investigation between DPS and ICE that resulted in the seizure of 28 pounds of crystal meth.

Investigators say that's worth about $2 million to $5 million on the street. Authorities did make two arrests in the sting.

The San Antonio High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area Task Force started investigating the men in March of 2010.

A federal complaint says the men had plans to move some crystal meth to Houston. Authorities say they were storing the meth at a Mini Storage unit in the 3500 block of S.W. Military.

Just goes to show ---- you never know what's in the storage unit next to yours.

That was the same storage place I drove by the other day and saw a bunch of people standing around doing one of those auctions like they have in the show Storage Wars. I wonder if someone bid on the Meth locker.

I hope they had at least $2 million in their pockets.
