GOODYEAR, AZ — Two men were arrested after police found $80,000 worth of fentanyl in their vehicle during a traffic stop.

Goodyear police report that on September 12, officers conducted a traffic stop near I-10 and Litchfield Road where a "strong odor of marijuana was discovered coming from the vehicle."

The occupants of the vehicle, Zavier Mark Scott and Jordan Worm, both 19, were detained as a drug dog searched the car.

In the car, police allegedly found nearly $3,000 in cash, a handgun, and four large sealed and unopened vitamin bottles. Each bottle, police say, was filled with about 20 vitamins and 3,000 fentanyl pills.

Scott and Worm were arrested on various drug-related charges.
