(Porter County, IN) - One Indiana State Police trooper was busy with drug busts earlier this week. He made three of them in a single shift.

On Monday morning a little before 8 a.m. the officer pulled over a VW Jetta on I-94 near Chesterton. In the trunk, nearly two pounds of cocaine was recovered. The driver from Aurora, Illinois and the passenger from Jalisco, Mexico were taken to Porter County Jail.

Later in the afternoon, the same officer pulled over a Toyota Scion on I-80. After detecting a strong odor, the trooper found 17 pounds of marijuana products. That driver was charged and released.
