MARATHON, Fla. (AP) — A stash of cocaine hidden inside a Cookie Monster doll has landed a Florida man in jail on a drug charge.
The Monroe County Sheriff's Office said Camus McNair, 39, was arrested after a traffic stop in the Florida Keys involving a car with heavily tinted windows and an obscured license plate.
A deputy smelled marijuana odor after pulling over McNair's car, then searched a backpack in the car and found the Cookie Monster doll.
The deputy noticed the doll seemed heavier than it should and a slit had been cut into it.
Authorities say about 11 ounces of cocaine was found inside the doll.
