Police said they saw a baggie of white powder believed to be cocaine inside the vehicle as they approached. When they asked Wagner to hand them the bag, he put it in his mouth and tried to swallow it.
WNEM reported that when police tried to physically stop Wagner from swallowing the substance, he revved his vehicle's engine and tried to put it in gear, according to officials.
When police sensed danger to Wagner and the public, they stunned him. Wagner still managed to swallow the baggie. He was taken into custody and admitted to the hospital for several days. He later passed three small baggies, which police said was determined to be cocaine, based on a preliminary field test, WXYZ reported.
Once released from the hospital, MLive reported Wagner was charged with possession of cocaine and resisting and obstructing.
WJRT reported Wagner remained in haul Monday under $100,000 bond.
