Stuffed monkey leads cops to drug arrest

An Arkansas State Police trooper suspected monkey business when he spotted a large stuffed animal perched atop the dashboard of a pickup truck on the interstate. A trooper driving down Interstate 40 near Forrest City on Monday spotted a truck with much of its windshield blocked by a large, stuffed monkey, authorities said. When the trooper pulled over the driver, he could smell what he suspected to be marijuana and he searched the vehicle, police said. Police said the trooper found more than 2,100 hydrocodone pills, 70 Xanax pills and 85 Soma pills.
