OLDHAM COUNTY, Texas (KFDA) - A traffic stop led to the arrest of two men and
the discovery of 48 pounds of methamphetamine in Oldham County.

A DPS Trooper stopped a 2021 Toyota Rav4 at 2:15 p.m. due to a traffic violation
east on I-40 near Vega on Wednesday, February 16.

Officials said the trooper discovered multiple plastic-wrapped bags of meth,
more than five pounds of cocaine, two ounces of marijuana, THC products and
suspected fentanyl tablets inside the rear cargo area.

The driver, 23-year-old Felipe Escalera-Nunez, of Overland, Missouri, was
arrested and charged with felony possession of a controlled substance.

A passenger, 25-year-old Brian Salinas of Florissant, Missouri, was also
arrested on the same charges.

Both were transported and booked into the Oldham County Jail.

Officials said the drugs were reportedly being transported from Los Angeles to
Fort Smith, Arkansas.

According to street value estimates, the meth was worth $2 million and the
cocaine was worth $220,000.
