Two men were arrested Wednesday after authorities found a kilo of cocaine, a handgun, and handcuffs during a traffic stop in Pacific. 

The Franklin County Sheriff's department said the two were pulled over for a stop-light violation near the I-44 Pacific exit.

During the stop, a Sheriff's deputy became suspicious, and contacted the Pacific Police department's K-9 unit. The canine officer indicated there were possible drugs inside the vehicle, the Sheriff's department said. A search of the car turned up the cocaine, the department said.

One of the men displayed a badge and said he was a licensed security guard in Illinois, according to the department. Both men are in their 40's, and from Illinois. Further investigation was being conducted, as of Thursday.
