150 pounds of meth stopped en route to Twin Cities; at least 4 arrested

William De Roo Ramirez was about halfway into hauling more than 150 pounds of meth up from Phoenix to St. Paul, a journey he had made more than a dozen times before, when he was stopped on the highway in rural Oklahoma.

According to federal criminal complaints filed Monday in Minnesota, Ramirez stood to make $20,000 on the delivery but opted to cooperate with authorities, setting in motion a series of arrests across the metro late last week.
