A police dog searching a Cudahy home for drugs Tuesday sniffed out cocaine valued at $4 million hidden in a car parked in the driveway, authorities said.

Deputies armed with a search warrant entered the residence on Fostoria Street about 2 p.m. and found a kilogram (2.2 pounds) of marijuana, officials said.

A police dog continued the search outside and keyed in on the car. Authorities waited for a second search warrant, then found the drug in the car, officials said.
