A recent traffic stop in Kamloops resulted in the seizure of more than 840,000 dollars.

Corporal Mike Halskov says a semi-truck had returned to BC from Alberta and it's suspected the cash was drug money.

He says a police dog indicated that the money inside smelled like illicit drugs.

The driver was a man from Surrey in his 50s and a charge of possession of the proceeds of crime is expected to be laid.
