During a routine traffic stop in Fresno County, California Highway Patrol officers uncover approximately 1 kilogram of cocaine, a ghost gun, and bundles of counterfeit money valued between $15,000 and $25,000. The driver of the vehicle, a 2017 Chevrolet Malibu, consented to the search, which led to the discovery of these illegal items concealed in a backpack located in the rear passenger seat.
Authorities estimate the street value of the cocaine alone at around $80,000.

The case raises concerns about the circulation of counterfeit currency and illegal firearms in the region.
