INDIANAPOLIS â A major drug bust helped Indianapolis police get about 50 pounds of cocaine and other drugs off the streets.
On September 30, 2024, IMPD was following up on an ongoing shooting investigation involving Derrick Griffin.
Police had a warrant to search the 49-year-old's car, identified as a black 2016 Tesla Model X, which was outside of his car shop near 34th Street and Emerson Avenue.
Records show law enforcement established surveillance around the business. Officers watched Griffin exit from the business and walk towards the Telsa that was parked in front of bay #2.

Griffin was seen multiple times going in and out of the business and to and from the Telsa, police say.
When officers approached with the search warrant, they did a protective sweep and detected a strong odor of marijuana coming from inside the business.
Per records, IMPD informed Griffin of the search warrant for his car. A detective asked if Griffin had the keys to his vehicle, but he did not respond. Officers found the keys inside the business office.
After that, officers found numerous bricks of cocaine inside the trunk and a large amount of cash. The cocaine had a cloverleaf logo on the packaging.
A tan handgun was also found underneath the driver's seat.
