The Department of Homeland Security said it won't get involved in the investigation of a tractor-trailer that was pulled over near Beaver Valley Power Station last week.

More than $500,000 cash was stuffed into a duffel bag found inside the vehicle after it tried to enter the nuclear plant in Shippingport, Beaver County, state police said.

Police believe the money is related to drug trafficking. It was confiscated and could be forfeited to the state.

Homeland Security said the incident is not being viewed as a security threat.
