A raccoon with a meth pipe in it’s mouth was found by a stunned cop during a traffic stop.

Body cam footage shows how he confiscated the glass pipe from the tubby mammal as it sat in the driver’s seat.

The officer pulled the car over after discovering that the owner had an outstanding arrest warrant and a suspended driver’s licence.

He arrested the woman, as reported by Need To Know.

He was then astonished when he looked through the car window and noticed a chubby raccoon in the driver’s seat with a glass meth pipe in its mouth.

The bizarre scenes happened on Monday (5 May) evening in Akron, near Cleveland, Ohio, US.

The car was inspected and inside, a bulk amount of methamphetamine, crack cocaine, and three used glass meth pipes were found.

The suspect – 55-year-old local woman Victoria Vidal – was charged with F3 possession of drugs and three counts of possession of drug paraphernalia.

She was also cited for driving under suspension, according to the Springfield Township Police Department.

She was later handed over to the nearby Cuyahoga Falls Police Department on account of the outstanding arrest warrant.

She is expected to face additional charges related to crack cocaine possession.

The authorities are now working to determine if she legally owns her pet raccoon – named Chewy – who was found to be unharmed.

The Springfield Township Police Department said: “While our officers are trained to expect the unexpected, finding a raccoon holding a meth pipe is a first.”
