$2M worth of meth found in Disney figurines in Gwinnett County
More than 500 pounds of methamphetamine — hidden in ceramic Disney figurines — was seized in Gwinnett County, according to Channel 2 Action News.
The drugs, believed to be worth $2 million, originated in Mexico and were shipped to Atlanta, Drug Enforcement Administration special agent in charge Robert Murphy told Channel 2.
Another load containing ceramic Disney figurines was also intercepted and believed to be a decoy, Murphy said.
No other details were released.
