A 37-year-old Massachusetts woman is facing drug trafficking charges after she was arrested on the Maine Turnpike while allegedly carrying crack cocaine and suboxone strips.

A car driven by Ryan Moores of Athol, Massachusetts, was stopped around 10 p.m. Saturday on the turnpike in York by Trooper John Darcy, a member of Troop G and the ProActive Criminal Enforcement Team.
