SAN ANTONIO -- Bexar County sheriff's narcotics officers arrested on the city's Notheast Side four men who they said were dealing the largest amount of methamphetamines they've ever seen.
After a month-long investigation, undercover agents raided a home in the 5600 block of Wood Climb.
Inside the home, the officers found four pounds of meth, also known as ice, worth an estimated $250,000.
The officers said the dealers could have broken up and sold the meth for possibly $750,000.
"This is the biggest seizure for ice that we've made," Lt. Darrell Sanders said.
The officers said that inside the home they also found 30 high-powered weapons and more than $80,000 in cash.
"The owner was probably a collector," Sanders said. "He's not saying how much, but we're going to seize them and see if they're stolen."
Two men, including the homeowner, James Corand, are facing federal drug charges.
The other two suspects are facing state drug charges.
