A traffic stop Sunday at 10 a.m. by a Lancaster County Sheriff’s deputy ended with a significant drug bust and a 37 year old Florida man behind bars. Lancaster County Sheriff Terry Wagner says they stopped the Toyota Tundra at Highway 77 and Rosa Parks Way for following another vehicle too close.
The deputies making the stop became suspicious of criminal activity and conducted a search that turned up 53.5 pounds of marijuana in vacuumed sealed packages and 1,200 mg of high concentrated THC.
The Toyota Tundra had been modified to store drugs in the tailgate, seats and door panels. The 2015 pickup had 380,000 miles on it.
The driver is identified as Christopher Ramos who was booked on a number of drug charges.
