Darpan News Desk, 27 Jul, 2016 11:27 AM
    MODESTO, Calif. — Police in Central California say they arrested a Canadian woman allegedly carrying 38 kilograms of heroin after a police dog alerted his handler to drugs inside her pickup truck during a traffic stop.
     
    The Modesto Bee reports (http://bit.ly/2atGcUy) 63-year-old Kathleen Landry, of British Columbia, was arrested Monday on Highway 99 in Modesto.
     
    Modesto Police spokeswoman Heather Graves says investigators would not release the moving violation allegedly committed by the driver that led to the probable cause for the stop.
