A 39-year-old Palermo woman was arraigned in a Massachusetts court Friday on drug trafficking and motor vehicle charges following a traffic stop Thursday morning on Interstate 495 in Bolton, Massachusetts.

Holly Grant, 39, is charged with trafficking in more than 200 grams of heroin, distributing a Class A drug, operating without a license and speeding, according to a clerk in Clinton District Court in Clinton, Massachusetts.

Grant was ordered held on $50,000 cash bail and her next hearing is set for Nov. 24.

According to the Massachusetts State Police, Trooper Philip McLaine of the Leominster barracks was patrolling in Bolton when he saw a silver Nissan speeding north.

He stopped the vehicle and a resulting search turned up 300 bundles of what police believe to be heroin, according to the news release.
