THOUSANDS OF PILLS SEIZED IN ARREST ON INTERSTATE 40

A Michigan man is facing drug charges following a traffic stop in Jefferson County, Tennessee by the state patrol. Trooper William Connors stopped a vehicle driven by 37-year-old Kenneth Young of Detroit, Michigan on I-40 for a speeding violation. While interviewing Young, the trooper said several indicators of criminal activity were present. The search of the vehicle and Young’s luggage uncovered one ounce of heroin compressed in a vacuum sealed bag. Troopers also located 4,400 pills individually packaged into 100 count pill bags for resale. Additionally, $1,886 was recovered. Some of the pills did not appear to be commercially manufactured and were possibly pressed with an unknown substance. The majority of the pills were identified as Oxycontin. Troopers arrested Young and charged him with felony possession of heroin and Schedule 2 pills for resale.
