LANSING -- A Michigan State Police investigation is under way after marijuana and cell phones arrived with a food shipment Monday at Saginaw Correctional Facility in Freeland.

Prison inspectors searched the delivery truck after receiving intelligence that the truck might be carrying contraband, Michigan Department of Corrections spokesman Chris Gautz confirmed Wednesday. In it, they found a quantity of suspected marijuana and cell phones and turned the case over to the MSP, Gautz said.

The food delivery vendor, Sun Valley Foods, is cooperating with the investigation, he said. Sun Valley did not immediately respond to an e-mail seeking comment.
