A police officer noticed a vehicle without a front license plate headed north on the interstate about 1:40 p.m. The officer, who was not identified by name, ran the registration from the vehicle’s rear and learned the registered owner’s license had been canceled.
After pulling the vehicle over, the officer said he could smell raw marijuana and asked for a backup unit. Troopers from the Ohio State Highway Patrol and Sidney police detectives arrived and searched the vehicle.
They found 1,633 suspected Oxycontin pills, a baggy of suspected cocaine, a marijuana blunt, and $3,502 in cash. The vehicle has been seized and is in police custody.
The police department will discuss the case with the county prosecutor’s office for further review.
