HANGING ROCK, Ohio (AP) -- The State Highway Patrol says two professional wrestlers stopped for speeding were caught with drugs.

Robert Szatowski, known as "Rob Van Dam," and Terry Brunk, known as "Sabu," were stopped yesterday near the southern Ohio town of Hanging Rock after appearing at a match in Huntington, West Virginia.

Both appear on Extreme Championship Wrestling, a part of the World Wrestling Entertainment league.

A trooper found 18 grams of marijuana and prescription drug tablets with Szatowski.

Brunk had a pipe used to smoke marijuana and nine pills.

Both were charged with drug abuse.

Szatowski also was accused of possession of marijuana and Brunk was charged with having drug paraphernalia.
