LINCOLN, Neb. - A man busted for $450,000 worth of black tar heroin in his car has been sentenced to nearly 4 years in prison.
Fabian Perez Lopez, of Salt Lake City, was sentenced on Thursday in U.S. District Court in Lincoln.
Lopez was stopped by a Nebraska State Patrol trooper last October on Interstate 80 near Waverly in eastern Nebraska. A search of the car turned up the stash of heroin in a package between the rear seat and a speaker box in the trunk.
