DETROIT (AP) - Police and U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agents have seized about $662,000 in suspected drug money after a tip on narcotics activity at a Detroit motel.
Police Chief Warren Evans tells reporters Tuesday that the money was neatly bundled and stuffed inside a red duffel bag, and believed to be part of "an interstate drug deal."
A man from Sherman, Texas, has been arrested and is awaiting drug possession charges. Evans says he is not a U.S. citizen.
Evans says police had the motel under surveillance about 12 hours when several people left about 9 p.m. Monday and struggled to lift the bag into a car. Police stopped and searched the car not far from the motel.
A small amount of cocaine and marijuana were found in the car.
