SAN DIEGO - A U.S. Border Patrol dog sniffed out a bundle of crystal methamphetamine at a San Diego County checkpoint on Tuesday, according to officials.

A 38-year-old man was arrested after agents discovered more than $73,000 worth of meth in the undercarriage of a Jeep Cherokee in Pine Valley.

The K-9 alerted agents, who found 4.1 pounds of narcotics hidden in the vehicle's transmission.

Agents were conducting a checkpoint at the intersection of Interstate 8 in Pine Valley.

The suspect and narcotics were later turned over to the Drug Enforcement Administration.
