A man and woman were arrested in Troy after they were found to possess suspected cocaine, heroin and a glass marijuana pipe.

An officer initiated a traffic stop on northbound Livernois Avenue, north of E. Square Lake Road on the driver of a silver 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix who was driving erratically, police say.

The driver, a 24-year-old Rochester Hills woman, and the passenger, a 22-year-old Auburn Hills man, were asked to exit the vehicle.

The officer noticed a clear plastic sandwich bag protruding from the woman's wallet, and found two plastic sandwich bags that contained a white powdery substance that appeared to be cocaine. 

Both the man and woman were arrested, and upon further inspection of the car, the officer found another plastic sandwich bag that contained a brown powdery substance that appeared to be heroin.

After the man was transported to a lock-up facility, police found a glass marijuana pipe in the back seat of the patrol car. 

Both of them were charged with Possession of Cocaine and Possession of Heroin. The man received an additional charge of Possession of Narcotic Paraphernalia.
