A Washington state man who was caught with 95 pounds of fentanyl and methamphetamine in February was indicted for three federal felonies in the U.S. District Court in Seattle.
Authorities said that Contreras-Arias was prohibited from possessing firearms due to a 2016 conviction for violating a protection order.
Upon a search of Contreras-Arias, officers found $7,000 in cash, multiple cell phones, and three room keys to the Clarion Inn, court documents say. Acting U.S. Attorney Tessa M. Gorman said that prosecuting drug traffickers remains a top priority for federal law enforcement."This defendant was being sought on a Washington Department of Corrections warrant for escape, when he was found to have multi-pound quantities of fentanyl and methamphetamine," Gorman said."Equally concerning was his possession of firearms – many of them reported stolen from across the Puget Sound region.
