    PORTLAND, Ore. ( KOIN ) — Police got an ironic surprise after stopping two people driving a stolen vehicle in Southeast Portland Tuesday night.

    Officers originally stopped the driver and passenger near Southeast Division and 162nd.

    They then searched the car, reportedly finding cash, a loaded firearm, scales and a bag which had “Definitely not a bag full of drugs” printed on it, which was first reported by The Oregonian/OregonLive .

    Police confirmed in a post on X (formerly known as Twitter) that the bag did have drugs inside.

    As a result, both the driver and passenger were taken into custody with multiple charges pending, police said.

    No further information has been released at this time.
