Pills, Pot and Coke Snagged During I-84 Police Detail

TOLLAND, CT — A drug task force working out of the state police Troop C barracks snagged a sizable stash after a Thursday evening traffic stop, a report indicates.

At 7:15 p.m. on Thursday, members of Troop C Narcotic Enforcement Team were conducting a "criminal and motor vehicle enforcement" detail on Interstate-84 and troopers observed a vehicle with an improperly displayed New Jersey temporary registration plate traveling eastbound, and conducted a motor vehicle stop near Union, according to a report.

Upon speaking with the operator, troopers suspected there were drugs in the vehicle and the operator and passenger gave them a search consent, a report indicates.

As the passenger, 23-year-old Cindy Feliz of The Bronx, NY, handed her purse to troopers, they observed cocaine in her palm that she was attempting to hide, according to a report.

Troopers seized the cocaine and took her into custody, according to a report. A further search uncovered more than 90 Xanax prescription pills, 16 Oxycodone pills, approximately 5 grams of cocaine, 5 grams of MDMA or "Molly" and 50 grams of marijuana, according to a report.

Feliz was transported to Troop C where she was fingerprinted, photographed and held on a $25,000 cash or surety bond, according to a report.

Feliz was scheduled to appear at Rockville Superior Court on May 18, 2017, state police said. The operator of the vehicle was issued an infraction for the improper display of registration plates, and released at the scene, state police said.
