2 Busts Lead Cops To Drugs & Cash, Williamson County Sheriff Says

ROUND ROCK, TX — In two separate incidents in Williamson County on Wednesday morning, the sheriff said, five people were arrested in a sizable drug bust and $170,000 in cash was confiscated during a traffic stop.

In one case, deputies executed a search warrant at a Round Rock home where marijuana, various THC derivatives, LSD, a stolen pistol, more than 100 round of ammunition and cash were seized, Williamson County Sheriff Robert Chody conveyed on Twitter.

No details were provided as is customary, including the names of the suspects and the location of the home.

In another incident Chody said also occurred Wednesday morning, $170,000 in cash was seized during a traffic stop in Georgetown along Interstate 35. The sheriff also used Twitter (rather than a customary press advisory) to convey news of that bust. But again, the case was short on details: No suspects were identified, the number of people not disclosed or details as to what led police to stop the vehicle. It was only the hashtag #MoneyLaundering that hints that nature of the alleged crime.
