Michigan police seize nearly $1 million worth of cocaine, 3 suspects arrested

Michigan State Police arrested three people and confiscated nearly $1 million worth of cocaine following a recent traffic stop.

Troopers stopped a vehicle on July 27 for a traffic violation. The driver authorized a search of the vehicle after police noticed the occupants behaving suspiciously, MSP said, according to Fox 17.

But the driver took off before the search could be conducted. A woman and two small children were also in the car.

The vehicle would later crash, but there was nobody inside when troopers arrived. Troopers discovered 22 pounds of cocaine in the car.

Another suspect, 22-year-old Jadzia Cobeo of New York, was found with a toddler near a swamp.
