Erwin, Unicoi County (WVLT) - Two people are now facing charges after Unicoi County Sheriff's deputies find drugs, hidden in an unlikely place.

Authorities say officers pulled over a car speeding on Interstate 26, Wednesday night, driven by 21-year-old Ashley Mayfield of Bristol.

After a search, officers found about a dozen pounds of marijuana in the trunk.

Now, this is where it gets weird, they found nearly nine ounces of cocaine in a baby's potty chair.

Mayfield is now charged with speeding and possession of cocaine and marijuana for resale. 26-year-old Kevin Furgeson, from Georgia, was also arrested on drug charges.
