WEXFORD COUNTY, Mich. (FOX 2) - Michigan State Police said meth and drug paraphernalia was found in a vehicle with a child in the backseat during a traffic stop Wednesday.
A trooper pulled over the vehicle on Wright Street near Leeson Street in Cadillac just after 8 p.m. because it didn't have a plate.
The driver, a 44-year-old Leroy man told the trooper that the vehicle was recently purchased by the front seat passenger, a 36-year-old Leroy woman.
Police said the driver and passenger did not have IDs. They provided the trooper with a handwritten note that said the vehicle was purchased April 28.
A woman, 42-year-old Susan Marie Winchester from Boon, and a child, were also in the vehicle.
During a search of the vehicle, the trooper found a metal Toy Story tin under the driver's seat that was accessible to Winchester. Inside the tin was a butane torch, styluses, glass pipes, and a keychain with a metal container with methamphetamine inside, police said.
