A state trooper who pulled over to help a motorist stranded on Interstate 95 found 8 pounds of marijuana valued at $20,000, police said.
Authorities charged Liam Day, 26, of Middletown, R.I., with felony possession of marijuana with the intent to distribute, state police Sgt. F.L. Tyler said.
Trooper Freddie Childs stopped on the shoulder at 5 a.m. Monday to check on Day's disabled car. Childs spoke with Day and two male passengers and was told the car had mechanical problems, Tyler said.
Childs searched the car after seeing a small amount of marijuana and found the other marijuana in the trunk, Tyler said.
Police said the two passengers were not charged.
The car was impounded and the marijuana was headed to a state lab for analysis, Tyler said.
