Drug seizures flood sheriff coffers in western Kansas
In Clark County two traffic stops yielded about $49,469 in drug money. Deputies plan to spend the windfall on equipment not in the budget. Across Kansas, seizures fund training and gear for fighting crime, with Clover County officials noting purchases from digital cameras to night-vision gear and a K-9 program. Police say forfeiture aims to deter drug activity and help counties afford needed tools.
