Police have said in a statement officers were patrolling a service-station truck stop in Ravenswood at around 2.30am on Monday morning.
A silver Mazda hatchback with Queensland registration plates was attempting leave the car park, and was intercepted with two male passengers.
During a search, a small lock-box was allegedly found in the underwear of a 37-year-old man. Inside the lock-box was methylamphetamine, heroin and GHB, which was seized.
The 37-year-old man was arrested and charged with trafficking a commercial quantity of drugs, and three counts of possessing a drug of dependence. He was remanded in custody and will appear in the Bendigo Magistrates Court today.
The other occupant of the vehicle, a 50-year-old man, was released without charge.
