Police in Tracy recently arrested two individuals in connection with the alleged discovery of a large amount of narcotics during a vehicle stop.
In a press release, police reported that they had stopped a vehicle near 11th Street and Parker Ave. on the afternoon of Tuesday, June 25. A K9 unit brought in for assistance reportedly alerted to the presence of narcotics in the vehicle.
Officers searched the vehicle and discovered two pounds of suspected heroin, police said.
The driver of the vehicle, whom police identified as Jose Cota Lugo, 53, was taken into custody.
Police also reported that, just prior to the vehicle stop, they had seen a second individual get out of the car with a suitcase and continue along 11th Street on foot.
Officers located this second individual, identified as Carina Osuna, 44, and took her into custody as well after discovering that she had multiple warrants for her arrest, police said.
In the suitcase, officers reportedly discovered 36 pounds of suspected methamphetamine.
Both Lugo and Osuna were ultimately booked at the San Joaquin County jail on narcotics-related charges, police said.
