LEONI TWP., MI – An Ypsilanti man was arrested early Wednesday after police say they found a large quantity of marijuana and other drugs in his vehicle during a traffic stop on I-94.
The 21-year-old suspect was eastbound on I-94 near M-60 when Blackman-Leoni Public Safety Sgt. Rick Gillespie pulled him over for driving 18 mph over the speed limit, according to a statement from Blackman-Leoni Public Safety Deputy Director Jon Johnston.
Gillespie initiated the traffic stop at 1:30 a.m. Wednesday, Oct. 29, and found several pounds of marijuana and a cache of illicit drugs that included mushrooms, Ecstasy, hash, hash oil and suspected black-tar heroin during a search of the vehicle, Johnston said.
The suspect was the only occupant of the vehicle and was arrested for driving on a suspended license and drug-related charges. He was also wanted on a traffic-related warrant out of Washtenaw County, according to the statement.
Johnston said the suspect is not a medical marijuana cardholder and was in possession of well over $5,000 worth of drugs.
Officers said they also seized about $1,000 in cash.
The suspect has been lodged at the Jackson County Jail.
His name is being withheld pending arraignment.
