The bag contained ya ice, police said. They were stopped and handcuffed at the Thepprasit-Thappraya intersection.

The two, who had their year-old daughter with them, claimed they had nothing to do with the drugs, but police were not buying their story and booked them for possession of a Class 1 narcotic.
