A Canadian man who was caught with almost $100,000 and then ran from federal authorities was found unconscious in the Detroit River while hauling almost 300 pounds of marijuana.

Glen Mousseau, 49, of Windsor, Ontario, Canada, was first arrested in early May. According to the probable cause, Mousseau was stopped while driving a U-Haul in St. Clair County on May 10.

During the stop, deputies reported finding a large plastic bag with $97,060 in cash. Mousseau said he didn’t know who it belonged to and was taken to the county jail. (Because It Is Illegal To Have Money?)

Once there, Mousseau said he illegally had entered the U.S. from Canada and said that he directs a smuggling operation that moves money and drugs between the two countries. He also admitted to moving marijuana, cocaine, or cash roughly seven times.

According to the affidavit, Mousseau said he was scouting a location to smuggle the currency he had when he was stopped. He said he gives GPS coordinates to someone in Canada who crosses the Detroit River with a submersible watercraft. Mousseau said he would then send the drugs or currency back with his associate across the river.

Mousseau also said that one of his submersible watercraft was seized by the Border Patrol on April 23 on Zug Island.

During the interview, he gave authorities permission to search his two cell phones which resulted in conversations with different people regarding GPS coordinates on the shoreline. The indictment says these locations are known as popular maritime smuggling locations.

Mousseau said he expected to take receive more narcotics that he was being paid to smuggle into Canada from the U.S. but the drugs were never delivered.
