A Nebraska man is behind bars in Kentucky following a traffic stop on the Bluegrass Parkway.
A police K-9 alerted to the presence of narcotics during a sniff of the vehicle.
A search of the trunk uncovered multiple boxes containing 55 pounds of meth wrapped in Christmas paper.
23-year-old Jacob Talamantes told police that he was traveling from Iowa and intended to traffic the drugs.
He is charged with trafficking, with additional charges pending.
Chief Richard Sanders of the Jeffersontown PD says, No amount of festive wrapping can disguise the harm these drugs inflict on families and communities.
