Traffic Stop Leads to Major Drug Bust, Three Arrested

GILLETTE, WY--Three 22-year-old men are facing multiple felony charges following a traffic stop in Campbell County that led to a significant drug seizure.

According to Undersheriff Quentin Reynolds, deputies stopped a gray 2024 Honda Pilot with Minnesota plates Sunday morning after clocking it at 60 miles per hour in a 55 zone on Highway 50 near Force Road.

During the stop on Hidden Valley Road, a deputy reported the smell of raw ma*****na coming from the vehicle. A K-9 unit was called in to conduct a free air sniff. K-9 Wick alerted to the presence of drugs.

A search of the vehicle uncovered roughly 75 pounds of ma*****na, along with 537 THC v**e cartridges containing more than 1,000 grams of liquid, and 48 ounces of THC wax. Deputies also found seven hydrocodone pills.

All three men were arrested and charged with multiple felonies, including possession of ma*****na with intent to deliver and possession of pills, as well as misdemeanor possession charges.

The case remains under investigation.
