SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. (AP) — Two people were arrested on drug charges after police say they crashed their Jaguar into a street post at South Lake Tahoe.

The Reno Gazette-Journal reports South Lake Tahoe police were first called to a report Monday of a Jaguar sedan driving off Lake Tahoe Boulevard and hitting a fence and street post.

Officers found the car moments later in a nearby church parking lot.

A police drug dog was used to help search the vehicle. Officers say more than 12 ounces of methamphetamine was found.

Police arrested 22-year-old Marleni Fuentes-Perez of San Mateo, Calif., and 28-year-old Jesus Cruz-Torres on charges of transportation of meth, hit and run and conspiracy.
