Ligonier Valley police seized 30 bricks of suspected heroin during a traffic stop on Thursday and arrested a Somerset County man, according to investigators.
Authorities got a tip Thursday that a large amount of drugs would be moving east on Route 30 through the Ligonier area in a Chevrolet Cruze, according to court papers. Police spotted the car at 8:15 p.m. with a female driver and passenger Xavier Todd Kenyon, 20, of Jenner Township, at the intersection of Routes 30 and 711.
The car sped off on Route 711 and onto a few side roads before getting back onto Route 711, according to court papers. Police conducted a traffic stop after they said they spotted items hanging from the rear view mirror and found Kenyon was not wearing shoes.
