NARRATIVE OF INCIDENT:
On September 12th, 2024, at roughly 1730hrs, a Springfield Police Department officer observed a drug deal between two individuals. The officer was able to coordinate a traffic stop and utilize his K9 partner Cash, who alerted to the possibility of illegal controlled substances in the vehicle.

The officer wrote a search warrant and recovered over 1.5lbs of fentanyl and over $15,000 cash. The fentanyl seized had an estimated street value of over $50,000.

This outstanding work prevented an untold number of potential overdoses and kept dangerous narcotics off the streets of Springfield.
