Illegals Arrested In 2nd Largest Drug Bust In Butler County
Sheriff Richard K. Jones reports that at approximately 7:00 pm yesterday, deputies conducted a traffic stop on State Route 747 just south of Port Union Road in West Chester Township. The driver, Rosando Mendoza-Contrars, 26 year old male, and passenger Edgar Contreras-Cadenas, 20 year old male, were acting extremely nervous during the stop. The Sheriff’s K9 unit responded and immediately alerted on the tailgate of the Ford F150 where 13 pounds of cocaine was being stored. The drugs were packed in 11 individual duct tape packages with a number written on them, ready for sale. Both subjects are in the United States illegally and authorities believe the drugs were brought in from Mexico. Neither subject had driving privileges or had a valid identification card.
B.U.R.N. Taskforce responded to the scene for the investigation and advised that the street value of the cocaine is worth about $300,000.00. Sgt. Hackney (B.U.R.N. Supervisor) advised this is the second largest bust to date in Butler County. Both subjects were charged with trafficking in drugs, a felony of the 1st degree and possession of drugs, a felony of the 1st degree. Both subjects were placed in the Butler County Jail. “This started as a marked lanes violation and turned into an expensive mistake on the part of these drug dealers. I will continue my stance on drugs as well as prosecuting anyone that is dealing and selling drugs in this county and if they are here illegally, we will prosecute them, put them in prison, and turn them over to I.C.E. (Immigration Customs Enforcement) for deportation,” said the Sheriff.
The case is still under investigati0n and more charges could follow.
Photographs of the drugs and the hidden compartment of the vehicle are available upon request.
