A large load of northbound Cocaine was found during a traffic stop on Interstate 5 Thursday. At around 10AM a CHP Officer stopped a Nissan Altima with tinted windows for a traffic violation in the Lakehead area. The driver of the car, 27-year-old Aniseto Chavez of Issaquah, Washington, had a juvenile passenger with him. The officer had his K9 Riva sniff around and he gave a positive signal, so the car was searched. Almost 27 Pounds of Cocaine was reportedly found inside secret fabricated compartments. Chavez also had $2,000. SINTF Drug Agents took over the investigation and Chavez was booked into jail on a Million Dollars Bail. The juvenile was taken into protective custody.
