Border Patrol agents confiscated over 20 pounds of metamphetamine with a value of $375,000 and took a man into custody in Boulevard, officials reported Wednesday.

The man was traveling in a 1999 Ford F-150 headed west on Interstate 8 around 4:30 a.m. Monday when officials came up behind the car and the driver suddenly stopped on the side of the road by Canebrake Road, officials with the Border Patrol stated.

He informed agents that he was having car issues.  

Agents became suspicious after they talked to the man because he kept giving the same answers so they requested  a K-9 to search the vehicle and the dog sensed there were drugs in the vehicle, the Border Patrol stated.

Agents looked through the car and discovered 19 bundles hidden in a compartment behind the passenger seat.

The driver, a 21-year-old U.S. citizen, was arrested and the drugs were handed over to the Drug Enforcement Administration.
