VACAVILLE, Calif., (UPI) -- Two men were arrested by Vacaville, Calif., police who discovered more than 200 marijuana plants inside their car, authorities say.

Police arrested Jaime Cebula, 34, of Fairfield, and Matthew Metzger, 27, of Vacaville.

At about 11:45 p.m. Thursday police stopped the two men in a black Honda Accord in the area of Ambassador Place and Rio Grande Drive. After smelling a strong odor of marijuana and searching the vehicle, they found 225 marijuana plants and a plastic bag with psilocybin mushrooms, the Vacaville Reporter said.

After detectives obtained a search warrant for a nearby residence, they said they found 100 immature marijuana plants, 10 mature plants and 1.5 pounds of processed marijuana along with a loaded shotgun and packaging material.

Metzger was booked into Solano County Jail on suspicion of cultivating marijuana, possession of marijuana for sale, transportation of marijuana, transportation of psilocybin mushrooms and possession of a controlled substance, the newspaper said.

Cebula, the driver of the car, was charged on an outstanding warrant and for the suspected transporting of marijuana in a vehicle.
