Leo Earl Sharp, an 87-year-old Indiana man, was busted by police after they found 228 pounds of cocaine worth an estimated $2.9 million in his pickup truck following a routine traffic stop.
As Reported By Yahoo:
A state trooper patrolling Interstate 94 near Ann Arbor pulled over Sharp on Friday for following too closely and executing an improper lane change, according to a complaint filed in U.S. District Court.
When the trooper asked Sharp if he could search the truck, the octogenarian refused. So the trooper requested a backup unit with a dog trained to detect bombs and illegal drugs.
As the animal walked around the rear of Sharp’s truck, it alerted to the possible presence of narcotics, the complaint said. During a subsequent search of the truck bed, troopers found 104 bricks of cocaine stashed in five bags.
Looks like this old man couldn’t stop getting his hustle on!
