YUMA – Yuma Sector agents working at the Highway 78 Immigration Checkpoint arrested a Lawfully Admitted Permanent Resident and a United States citizen after agents found more than 20 pounds of meth, disguised as ice pops.

According to U.s. Customs and Border Protection, on Sunday afternoon, a Border Patrol drug dog alerted the drugs in a Toyota Corolla. Agents referred the vehicle to the secondary inspection area, and searched a cooler containing brightly colored bags disguised as frozen ice pops.

The unidentified 28-year-old female driver and her male 38-year-old passenger were both arrested.
