Munroe Falls police say that a traffic stop early Tuesday turned into a drug bust.

Police say they stopped the car for a headlight violation, and say a smell of marijuana came from the car. A check showed the three people inside had a history of drug involvement.

The car sped away after Munroe Falls police brought in a police dog from Stow to sniff around.

Officers say drugs and drug paraphenalia were thrown from the car in a brief chase.

Three people were arrested when the car stopped.

28 year-old Amber Isler, 30 year-old Earl Wayne Mitchel and 43 year-old Jarrett Forester face drug possession and other charges related to the arrest.

Police say they netted 52 grams of cocaine, 7.8 grams of crack, 2 grams of marijuana and $665 in cash.

(Cleveland Browns) STATEMENT FROM CLEVELAND BROWNS GENERAL MANAGER RAY FARMER:

We are aware of the arrests of De'Ante Saunders and Armonty Bryant after a traffic stop early Friday morning.

These are charges that we take very seriously. The importance of responsible decision-making is something we continually stress to all members of our organization, which makes it extremely disappointing that these two individuals would put themselves in this situation by making such poor decisions.

Armonty will be inactive on Sunday for our game against the Chiefs and will not travel with the team to Kansas City so he can tend to this personal legal matter.

In addition to being a pending legal matter, this incident is subject to the NFL personal conduct policy and we have no further comment at this time.
