Two California residents are behind bars after a major drug bust on I-80 near Waverly late Monday afternoon. Lancaster County Sheriff’s Chief Deputy Ben Houchin says deputies on patrol stopped an eastbound Toyota Tundra for a traffic violation around 5:00 p.m.

“Consent to search the vehicle was allowed.  During the search 79 pounds of meth was located,” Houchin says.  “That’s worth anywhere from $350 to $400,000.”

Houchin says the man and woman were booked for possession of meth with intent to deliver.
