A Charlotte County Deputy K-9 alert helped arrest a man accused of possessing drugs and nearly $200,000 in cash, according to deputies. 

Deputies said Robert Flanagan, of Bradenton, was pulled over because his pickup truck had several violations. 

K-9 Scar indicated that he smelled drugs in the car. Deputies said they found wax dab oil, which contains a high concentration of THC. They also found bags filled with more than $193,000, and small pieces of marijuana flakes. 

Flanagan is currently facing several charges.
