A solo-vehicle crash in Wyoming somehow led federal agents to a Santa Clara warehouse believed to be used to manufacture crystal methamphetamine.
SAN JOSE — A solo-vehicle accident 1,100 miles from the Bay Area was the first domino to fall in an investigation that led federal agents to a Santa Clara warehouse believed to be an “active methamphetamine conversion site,” court records show.
The investigation began July 1, in Rawlins, Wyoming, where a car containing 40 pounds of methamphetamine crashed on Interstate 80, according to the criminal complaint. A Rawlins officer responded to the collision and told the car’s two occupants, both Bay Area residents, he was going to search the car, when one admitted a large amount of drugs was hidden inside.
