Police searching a man who had just been arrested made an interesting discovery at the Massillon City Jail this week.

Officers arrested 34-year-old Jason Webb after pulling him over Monday at Roosevelt Street NE and Korman Avenue. During the traffic stop, officers searched his car and found multiple bags of marijuana packaged for sale, a digital scale and $1,046. 

Police brought Webb back to the jail where he was searched. During the search, officers found a small bag of marijuana inside his underwear. Officers reportedly asked Webb if there were any other drugs on him, to which he responded 'no.'

While one of the officers was putting a belt around Webb, he noticed what appeared to be crack cocaine by the man's foot. 

As Webb moved, more crack cocaine fell out of his pants, according to police. 

Webb was then asked to remove his pants. As he did, more crack cocaine fell out of his underwear, police said. 

Webb is facing charges of illegal conveyance of weapons or prohibited items, trafficking in cocaine and trafficking in a controlled substance. He is being held in the Stark County Jail and is expected to appear in court Wednesday.
