Woman: Wal-Mart Pants Came With Cocaine

Fort Pierce gal claims pants were full of powder

The street value of Wal-Mart pants just went up in St. Lucie County.

Not really, but Amy Lynn Hughes' excuse as to why cops found cocaine in her trousers is priceless.

Cops found the coke on the 24-year-old Huges last Thursday after she and a companion were pulled over in the 3900 block of U.S. 1, according to WPTV.

Hughes, from Fort Pierce claimed she was just as surprised as the cops that there was cocaine in her pants, saying she had just bought them and the powder "must have been in them when she bought them," a police report said.

Her story had apparently changed from earlier when she said they weren't even her pants.

"I don't know how that got there, these are not my pants, I borrowed them from someone," she reportedly said.

Officers didn't buy her Wal-Mart story, and arrested Hughes on felony cocaine possession charges.
