Investigators went to the facility at about 8:45 p.m., Thursday March 21  in the 12000 block of Lopez Canyon Road, Los Angeles police Officer Bruce Borihanh said.

The investigation, which is ongoing, was being conducted by personnel from a multi-jurisdictional narcotics task force, Borihanh said.

Officers targeted the trailer aided by drug-sniffing dogs, he said.

Los Angeles County firefighters were sent to cut through the metal floor of the trailer, where cocaine was found, Borihanh said.
