SOUTH BEND, Ind. - A South Bend man was sentenced to over 12 years in prison after pleading guilty to conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office.

Terrence Reid, 39, was sentenced to 12 years and six months in prison followed by five years of supervised release.

In May 2019, Reid, along with co-conspirators, planned to buy methamphetamine in California and bring it back to the Midwest to distribute, according to case documents.

In California, Reid collected more than 15 kilograms of methamphetamine and put it into a vehicle to be driven to the Midwest, reports said.

Reid then flew to Chicago while co-conspirators drove the methamphetamine to the Midwest, according to reports.

Law enforcement found the methamphetamine when they stopped the vehicle in Missouri.
