Semi hauling kilos of cocaine tracked from Mexico border to Tracy, sheriff says
TRACY – A truckload of cocaine was seized by law enforcement officers in Tracy this week, authorities say.
The San Joaquin County Sheriff's Office says, on Tuesday, agencies from across the region intercepted a semi-truck that had been tracked from the Mexican border to Tracy.
Inside the truck, authorities found, was a shipment of 189 kilos – or more than 415 pounds – of cocaine.
Authorities let the truck pull up to a residence off Koster Road. Agents then closed in, leading to two suspects eventually being taken into custody.
🚨April 22, 2025 | Tracy, CA 189 Kilos of Cocaine Seized🚨 Earlier this week, HSI Stockton and multiple San Joaquin County law enforcement agencies intercepted a semi-truck loaded with 189 kilos of cocaine in Tracy. The truck, tracked from the Mexican border, led agents to a residence off Koster Road. One suspect was detained without incident. Another fled and barricaded himself in the attic, where he was safely taken into custody by our SWAT K9.
