Two Arrested After Feds Find Huge Amount Of Meth Hidden In Lettuce Heads

Two San Antonio men are in federal custody after reportedly being caught with a huge amount of meth hidden in a shipment of lettuce heads.

Federal agents arrested Gerardo Pineda-Gallegos and Jose Lopez-Ruiz on Tuesday. The DEA, the FBI, and San Antonio police executed a warrant at a wholesale produce distribution warehouse in December, where they found more than 12 hundred pounds of meth concealed in the produce.

Pineda-Gallegos and Lopez-Ruiz are charged with conspiracy to possess meth with intent to distribute.
