Total worth? About $5 million, according to the A.G. Yay! (Yo).
Some dumb criminal, allegedly, actually delivered 41 kilos ...
... to a state Department of Justice agent posting as a buyer, according to a statement from Harris' office. (Didn't the peddler notice the prospective purchaser's nice haircut or the late-model American car? Guess not).

The buy-and-bust went down Thursday at a Bellflower parking lot, where authorities say two suspects rolled up with 42 keys in their trunk.
After that a search warrant was served at an alleged "stash house" in Bell Gardens where another 9 keys was claimed to have been found, according to Harris' folks. They also say authorities found nearly $40,000 in drug proceeds there.
The accused delivery guys were named as Giovani Flores-Arias of Sinaloa, Mexico and Rene Guerrero of Indio.
Flores was booked with no bail while Guerrero was jailed in lieu of $2 million. Both could see 25 years if convicted.
Harris says state agents previously took 22 pounds of meth from the cartel.
