DEA agents seized nearly 3,552 pounds of methamphetamine and 145 pounds of cocaine from a stash house in Riverside County, California. The is the biggest seizure for the DEA Los Angeles Division.

Officials had been investigating a drug trafficking organization thought to be connected to the Sinaloa Cartel. They then discovered a residence in Norco where drugs were being held.

At the end of last month, investigators saw someone transporting three weighted boxes from the location and placing them inside of a vehicle. Officers searched that car and discovered 66 kilograms of cocaine and over 3,550 pounds of meth from boxes stored in the residence’s garage.

Authorities have stated that the drugs were valued at $33 million.

Images shown by the DEA revealed what seemed to be bricks of cocaine with “Jaguar” imprinted on them.

“This massive seizure likely saved lives and prevented the Sinaloa Cartel from doing business and profiting on the lives of people in our communities,” said one special agent.
