Men arrested after $100,000 in meth discovered during traffic stop
According to a social media post, a New Braunfels police officer pulled over a gray Ford Fusion for a traffic violation in the 800 block of I-35 North.
After talking with the two men inside the car, the officer detained the two and began a search of the vehicle.
NBPD said nine gallon-sized zip-top bags containing methamphetamine were found in a backpack in the car’s trunk.
The meth has an estimated street value of more than $100,000, police said.
Alfonso Villareal III, 25, and Rodney Fernandez, 32, both of San Antonio, were taken into custody and charged with manufacture/delivery of a controlled substance, police said.
Villareal and Fernandez were taken to the Comal County Jail on a bond of $25,000 each. Fernandez has since posted bond.
Note: That search led to the discovery of a backpack in the trunk of the vehicle. Inside the backpack the officer found nine gallon-sized zip-top bags, each containing a large amount of crystal-like substance, which field tested positive for methamphetamine. In total, officers seized just over 20 pounds of methamphetamine with an estimated street value of more than $100,000.
