A Florida man was arrested last week after deputies say he tried to stash a bag of meth under a patrol car during a traffic stop.
Detectives determined John Schneider, 49, had just purchased a half pound of methamphetamine outside Volusia County and was taking it back to sell out of a home in Orange City.
That plan was thwarted when Schneider and his girlfriend were pulled over by Volusia County deputies Thursday night.
Department-provided body camera video shows deputies talking to Schneider outside the vehicle when he dropped the bag of meth under the patrol car.

"Aww, man," his girlfriend, identified as 49-year-old Lee Sanberg, can be heard saying.
Schneider allegedly tried to deny the bag of dope was his, but the deputy told him the incident was caught on camera.
