Arizona troopers recently seized more than 194 pounds of drugs bound for the Phoenix area during two traffic stops along Interstate 8, Department of Public Safety officials said.

The first traffic stop occurred at 6:30 a.m. June 28 on eastbound Interstate 8 near milepost 51 where a trooper stopped the driver of a Chevrolet Tahoe for non-moving violations. DPS reported that during the stop the trooper saw “multiple indicators of criminal activity.”

A vehicle search uncovered about 72.7 pounds of fentanyl pills and 6.3 pounds of cocaine concealed in trash bags.

The driver and passenger, San Luis residents Javier Luna-Vazquez, 53, and Luis Lopez Chavez, 55, face charges, including possession and transportation of a narcotic drug for sale and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Investigators believe the drugs were being transported from Yuma to Phoenix, according to DPS.

The next morning, a trooper stopped the driver of a Honda Accord for non-moving violations on eastbound Interstate 8 near milepost 49 and “indicators of criminal activity” were observed prior to a search that turned up 112.9 pounds of methamphetamine and 2.95 pounds of cocaine hidden throughout the car, authorities said.
