PONTIAC, Mich. (WJBK) - Around $150 million worth of drugs are off the streets after Oakland County Sheriff's and federal authorities seized the largest quantity of heroin ever discovered in the state.
According to a release, a traffic stop last week in Pontiac led to the search of a apartment on Pike St. where 69 kilograms of heroin and 10.5 kilograms of cocaine were discovered. "The sheer quantity of drugs we confiscated last week in our own backyard is startling," said Oakland County Sheriff Michael Bouchard.
The couple living in the apartment have been charged with possession with intent to distribute cocaine and heroin. They are Juventino Urioste Valdovino and Lila Torres-Garcia.
