Was it time to face the music?
Deputies in Colorado say 113 pounds of methamphetamine valued at more than $1 million were discovered inside a subwoofer box over the weekend.
The drugs were found after a deputy pulled a vehicle over on Saturday, according to a Facebook post from the Adams County Sheriff’s Office.

They added, “While writing a summons for the speeding violation, K-9 Deputy Lopez arrived and his K-9 alerted to the trunk of the vehicle.”
The sheriff’s office said the vehicle was then searched and the drugs were discovered.

Senior Deputy Michael D. Kaiser told Fox News Wednesday that both the driver and passenger will face charges related to distribution of controlled substances in addition to the driver's speeding ticket.
