Medina County Sheriff's deputies scored some cash and drugs during a routine traffic stop.
News Channel 5 reports deputies seized $15,000 in cash and 1 1/2 kilos of Khat, an African plant with similar effects to cocaine.
During the traffic stop, three men identfied as Somali nationals were pulled over for littering along I-76 in Seville last week.
When the car was pulled over, deputies saw a driver chewing a green plant, and also saw leaves scattered around the passenger seats. The men agreed to a search and found a large amount of Khat and money.
All three were legally in the United States and told deputies that after they were stopped, they were traveling back to Maine after a trip to Columbus, but their car had Colorado license plates.
The leaves of Khat are chewed because of their stimulant -like effects that can last from 90 minutes to three hours, which can be addictive. It's typically found in northeast Africa and the Arabian Peninsula.
The plants were analyzed by the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification, and the men were released after the drugs were analyzed.
