Father says daughter's ashes were mistaken for drugs and spilled during Illinois traffic stop

A father from Romeoville, Illinois says the remains of his late daughter were handled inappropriately during a traffic stop last week.

Anthony Butler, 25, said a vial of his daughter's ashes was mistaken for drugs and spilled after he was pulled over March 11.

Butler told the Chicago Tribune that his daughter, Mariah, died 11 days after she was born in 2014 due to a congenital heart defect. He said he usually wears a pendant urn containing her cremated remains on a chain around his neck.

Butler said he had the pendant hanging around the rearview mirror of his SUV when he was pulled over by a Will County sheriff's deputy last week...
