Over two pounds of suspected fentanyl was found hidden in the bumper of a minivan on the PA Turnpike in Mt. Pleasant Township on Thursday.
The Trib reports that officers pulled over Ernesto Lantigua-Arias of Massachusetts for following someone too closely near Mile Marker 83.5. When he gave police permission to search his car, they found the suspected drugs with a street value of $150,000 in the bumper.
Lantigua-Arias is now in Westmoreland County Prison on $250,000 bail and a preliminary hearing is set for July 12th.
