Two San Angelo men were arrested Saturday after police recovered a sizeable amount of methamphetamine during a traffic stop.

On Oct. 25, shortly after 2:15 p.m., San Angelo police officer E. McAndrews stopped a silver 2005 Cadillac in the 2600 block of the eastbound Houston Harte Expressway for traffic violations.

During the traffic investigation, the vehicle’s front passenger, identified as 21-year-old John R.
