3 women charged after drugs, counterfeit cash found in car

CHICAGO (CBS) -- Driving too slow landed three women in jail after Indiana state troopers say they also found drugs and counterfeit cash. 

Late Friday morning troopers stopped a red Ford SUV along the Indiana Toll Road for driving 45 miles per hour in a 70-mile-per-hour zone. 

State Police say the trooper smelled marijuana then searched the car and discovered about 30 grams of marijuana, pills believed to be ecstacy and about $3,000 in fake $100 bills. 

Marijuana is illegal in Indiana. 

All three of the women now facing charges are from Illinois.
