DINT release - In the evening hours of Wednesday, May 14th, detectives with the Douglas Interagency Narcotics Team (DINT) arrested a Salem man in connection to a methamphetamine investigation.  Detectives have been investigating a man they know as Enrique Gonzalez-Hernandez for weeks, regarding suspicion of him trafficking large amounts of methamphetamine into our community from the Salem area.  On Wednesday, at approximately 7:00 PM, detectives located Gonzalez-Hernandez once again coming to Douglas County from the Salem area.  With assistance from the Douglas County Sheriff's Office, detectives initiated a traffic stop on Gonzalez-Hernandez's vehicle on I-5 southbound at milepost 136 in the Sutherlin area.  Douglas County Sheriff's Office drug detection K-9 "Trapper" was applied to the vehicle and he gave the signal to his handler that he'd detected the odor of controlled substances.  A search of the vehicle revealed approximately 9 pounds of suspected methamphetamine hidden inside.  35 year old Enrique Gonzalez-Hernandez was identified through his valid Oregon driver's license, and was arrested at the scene without incident.  Gonzalez-Hernandez was transported to the Douglas County Jail where he was lodged on charges of Unlawful Possession of Methamphetamine and Unlawful Delivery of Methamphetamine.  Upon being fingerprinted at the jail, deputies learned the man's true identity, which is Javier Peres-Alvarado.  Peres-Alvarado had been previously arrested and fingerprinted, making the connection possible through fingerprint analysis.  This case is still ongoing, pending further investigation.  The Douglas Interagency Narcotics Team (DINT) is a multi-jurisdictional narcotics task force that identifies, disrupts, and dismantles local, multi-state, and international drug trafficking organizations using an intelligence-driven, multi-agency prosecutor-supported approach.  DINT is supported by the Oregon-Idaho High-Intensity Drug Trafficking Area (HIDTA) and is composed of members from the Douglas County Sheriff’s Office, Roseburg Police Department, Oregon State Police, Douglas County District Attorney’s Office, and the Bureau of Land Management.  The Oregon-Idaho HIDTA program is an Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP) sponsored counterdrug grant program that coordinates with and provides funding resources to multi-agency drug enforcement initiatives, including DINT.
