Department of Public Safety officers have seized $467,565 in drug money during traffic stops for the month of September.
The largest money seizure was made September 16, when a DPS officer stopped a vehicle for a traffic violation on I-10 eastbound near Tucson.
The officer received consent from the driver of the vehicle to conduct a vehicle search and, as the officer began his search, the driver fled the scene on foot and was not located.
DPS Canine "Rex" alerted other officers to a hidden compartment in the vehicle, which revealed $164,855 in U.S. currency.
The vehicle and currency were seized.
