A deputy traveling east on Highway 90 observed a vehicle cross the median in Patterson and conducted a traffic stop.  The deputy made contact with the driver, Bergeron, and a passenger, Guillory. As the investigation proceeded, the deputy called an SMPSO K9 unit to the scene and K9 Vickie was deployed to conduct an open-air sniff. K9 Vickie alerted to the presence of drugs. Drugs, drug paraphernalia, and cash ($36,497.00) were subsequently located.  Bergeron and Guillory were transported to the St. Mary Parish Law Enforcement Center for booking.
