FREDERICK, Md. - Frederick County sheriff's deputies have seized 2 1/4 pounds of cocaine and charged five men with drug offenses.
The sheriff's office says it made the bust Friday night after getting a tip about a cocaine distribution ring.
The tip led deputies to a pickup truck and an SUV in a McDonald's parking lot near New Market.
Cpl. Jennifer Bailey says the deputies stopped the vehicles on Interstate 70 for traffic violations and found the drugs in packages inside the pickup.
Four of the subjects are from the Manassas, Virginia, area and the fifth is from Glen Burnie.
Bailey says two of the men are illegal immigrants from Mexico who will face deportation proceedings after the criminal cases are resolved.
