Oregon State Police arrested two men Wednesday night after they found dozens of Oxycontin pills valued at up to $13,000 in their vehicle.

20-year-old Kyle Semrau of Roseburg was stopped by troopers for not having a license plate light. He was arrested along with his passenger, 19-year-old Sean Osborne of Oakland .

Police say they found nearly 13 dozen Oxycontin pills in the car. Each pill has a street value of about $65-$80, and that added up to as much as $13,000.

Police say other drug paraphernalia like syringes and spoons were also located in the car.

Both men were taken to the Douglas County Jail and charged with Unlawful Possession of a Controlled Substance.
