Nazareth man found with marijuana, more than $125,000 in car

A Nazareth man pulled over Friday night for suspected drunken driving had marijuana and more than $125,000 in cash, borough police said.

Keith Eutsey, 33, was stopped about 10:20 p.m. on Route 248 after driving erratically, and police observed him throwing marijuana out of the car as they approached, Deputy Chief Thomas Trachta said.

After he was placed under arrest, Eutsey indicated there was a large sum of money in the car, Trachta said. After securing a search warrant, police found additional marijuana and the money.

In addition to more than $125,000 in real cash, Trachta said counterfeit money was found inside the vehicle. Trachta declined to say how much marijuana was seized.

Eutsey, of Old Towne Road, was charged with possession of marijuana and released, but Trachta said additional charges are possible pending an investigation.
