INDIANAPOLIS – An Indiana state trooper discovered 154 pounds of cocaine in a routine traffic stop on I-70, according to the Indiana State Police.

The driver, Onkar Singh, has been arrested on drug charges and transported to the Marion County jail.

Officers stated that 43-year-old Singh was stopped Friday at 2:30 p.m. for failing to signal a lane change. During the traffic stop, the officer noticed signs of criminal activity and requested a K9 be sent to investigate. K9 Cole did an open-air sniff, and alerted police of the narcotics.
