Daily Record, The (Baltimore), Feb 7, 2008
Maryland State Police say a trooper found a record 32 pounds of heroin worth an estimated $4.4 million in a Florida man's van during a traffic stop on northbound Interstate 95 in Cecil County. Police say 41-year-old Jose Gomez of Orlando was arrested Tuesday morning after he was pulled over for speeding in a 2003 Dodge Caravan.
The trooper saw signs of possible criminal activity and called for a drug dog. After the dog indicated that drugs were present, police say troopers searched the van and found a hidden compartment built into the engine's firewall. They say it contained 32 pounds of heroin, the largest amount ever found by state police. Gomez is charged with heroin dealing and conspiracy charges.
