Cops find over $7,700 during traffic stop
An Ohio State Highway patrolman pulled over a rental car Feb. 3 at the intersection of Philadelphia Drive and Siebenthaler Avenue.
The OSP officer clocked the 2012 rental going 52 mph in a 35 mph zone and called for assistance from Dayton police. A police sergeant from Good Samaritan Hospital also was on scene. Though there was a strong odor of marijuana inside the car, no drugs were found.
However, officers found a good deal of cash on the the 23-year-old driver and his two passengers.
The 22-year-old passenger had a wad of cash in his front pocket — $3,760. The 21-year-old passenger had a somewhat smaller wad in his pocket — $2,055. The driver, who had warrant out, had a mere $1,890 in his pocket. The driver was taken to the Montgomery County Jail on his warrant.
The cash totaled just over $7,700. A tidy bit of walking around money. But it was a Friday night.
We’ll keep checking into this to see where it leads.
