Feds arrest 4 Highland Park police officers - Fox 2 News Headlines
HIGHLAND PARK, Mich. (WJBK) -- Four Highland Park police officers are under arrest following a federal drug probe.
FOX 2's Roop Raj reports the officers charged are 29-year-old Anthony Bynum, 38-year-old Price Montgomery, 33-year-old Shawn Williams and 55-year-old Craig Clayton.
Bynum and Montgomery are both officers with the Highland Park police. Bynum also is a reserve officer with the Detroit Public Schools, and Williams and Clayton both are auxiliary officers for Highland Park.
Prosecutors say in November Bynum and Montgomery protected and delivered a shipment of what they believed to be two kilograms of cocaine from Oakland Mall in Troy to a location in Taylor, Mich. In exchange for their assistance, prosecutors say each officer was paid $1,500.
Prosecutors say the pair then recruited Williams and Clayton to protect and deliver a second shipment of cocaine.
What the officers didn't know was that they were working for an FBI informant and the shipments were not real cocaine. Instead, they were part of a drug sting.
The informant was arrested by Bynum and Montgomery in August. Prosecutors say the two officers agreed to help drop the charges in exchange for $10,000. It was after this exchange that the man started working for the feds.
Raj says the four will be formally charged Friday afternoon. The charges include accepting bribes, conspiring to distribute six kilograms of cocaine and carrying firearms in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime.
It wasn't clear if the men had lawyers.
