KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) - A man in the U.S. illegally has been sentenced to 35 years in prison for trafficking methamphetamine into Kansas City, Kansas.
The Kansas City Star (https://bit.ly/2o5StU9 ) reports that 33-year-old Juan Antonio Herrera-Zamora was sentenced Monday after being found guilty last year in federal court on drug trafficking and illegal firearm possession charges.
Herrera-Zamora, a citizen of Mexico, was charged with shipping 26 pounds of meth into the Kansas City area by using the inside of a car’s spare tire.
He was arrested at a Kansas City, Kansas, tire shop where the drugs were unloaded.
Police also found a gun hidden in a baby’s diaper bag when Herrera-Zamora was arrested.
