PORTLAND, Ore. (KOIN) — A California man was arrested with over 65 pounds of cocaine after a traffic stop in Jackson County on Wednesday.
Oregon State Police say a trooper pulled over 52-year-old Gerardo Avila Soriano in a 2021 Ford Explorer for following too close on I-5.
The trooper noticed something suspicious and searched Soriano’s car. He discovered 65 pounds of ‘suspected’ cocaine in ‘natural voids’ of the rear doors of the car.
Soriano was booked into Jackson County Jail for unlawful possession and delivery of cocaine.
