A 24-year-old Muskegon man is facing drug charges after a traffic stop in Traverse City Sunday.

Troopers from the Michigan State Police (MSP) Traverse City Post stopped a vehicle on US-31 near Marketplace Circle in Garfield Township for a moving violation at 5:25pm. During the stop, troopers "observed indicators of suspected narcotics trafficking," according to an MSP release.

A search of the vehicle led to the discovery of approximately 82 grams of suspected fentanyl, 14 grams of suspected crack cocaine, and 20 grams of suspected methamphetamine. Troopers arrested the Muskegon man and lodged him at the Grand Traverse County Jail on charges of possession with intent to deliver. The suspect’s name is not being released until after arraignment.
