Guam - The Drug Enforcement Administration executed a search warrant last week at an Agat residence where they believe drug trafficking was occurring.  According to the application filed with the District Court, in mid-December, drug detector dogs alerted to an express mail package sent from Tacoma, Washington. 

Inside postal inspectors found an ink toner cartridge with 60 grams of crystal methamphetamine inside and five grams of marijuana and five grams of a brown powdery substance.   Law enforcement tracked who picked up the package and traced it to Anthony Junior Mendiola's home. 

During the search warrant, agents seized numerous documents including airline tickets, receipts and papers containing phone numbers.
