WARREN – Felony drug charges were filed against a 34-year-old man from Erie, PA following a traffic stop in Lake County. During the traffic stop, troopers seized 2.2 pounds of cocaine worth approximately $30,000.

The driver, Shawn Jones, 34, Erie, PA, was incarcerated at the Lake County Jail and charged with possession of drugs and trafficking drugs, both first-degree felonies.
