MARTINEZ, CA – A routine traffic stop in California turned into a massive drug bust when officers discovered over 125 pounds of marijuana crammed into trash bags inside a vehicle. What started as a simple speed enforcement stop quickly escalated when California Highway Patrol (CHP) officers spotted the illegal cargo in plain sight.
Large-Scale Drug Bust During Routine Stop
CHP Contra Costa officers were conducting a speed enforcement operation in Contra Costa County when they pulled over a vehicle for a traffic violation.
As they approached, they immediately noticed âlarge quantities of marijuanaâ packed inside the car.
Photos released by CHP reveal the vehicleâs backseat and trunk overflowing with large black garbage bags, each stuffed with marijuana.
The sheer volume of the seized cannabisâmore than 125 poundsâsuggests the suspects may have been involved in drug trafficking.
Two Arrested on Drug Charges
The driver and passenger, whose identities have not been released, were taken into custody on drug possession charges.
Authorities did not disclose whether additional charges might be filed or if the suspects had prior records.
CHPâs Commitment to Public Safety
In a statement, the CHP emphasized its ongoing efforts to remove illegal substances from California roads. âThis enforcement action highlights the ongoing efforts by the CHP to keep illegal substances off our roads and ensure public safety,â the agency stated.
They urged the public to report any suspicious activity or impaired driving by contacting their local CHP office or dialing 911.
The case remains under investigation as authorities work to determine the origin and intended destination of the seized drugs.
