A Bartholomew County Sheriff’s Office deputy pulled over 35-year-old David Young of Indianapolis around 1:30 a.m. Saturday after he was driving erratically on I-65 near exit 68.

Drugs and drug-related items as well as sheets of counterfeit money, a printer, ink and several checkbooks were found in the vehicle, according to the sheriff’s office.
