Three people have been arrested after police found crystal meth in a vehicle Friday night, according to RCMP Cpl. Darryl Orr.
“On Sept.18, at approximately (8 p.m.) members of the Trail RCMP General Duty Section pulled over a vehicle which was travelling from Rossland to Trail,” Orr said. “The three occupants of the vehicle were arrested for Possession of Drugs for the Purpose of Trafficking. During the search of the vehicle approximately 20 grams of crystal methamphetamine and two grams of black tar heroin were located.”
He said numerous charges, including Possession of Drugs for the Purpose of Trafficking, Possession of Drugs, Breach of Undertaking, and Breach of Probation, have been recommended against two of the occupants of the vehicle.
“These two persons are known to the police, and have been remanded in custody appearing in Rossland Court today,” he said. “Their vehicle was towed from the scene and issued an inspection order as it was deemed unsuitable for Highway travel.
“This was a proactive police investigation taken on by local uniformed members and is a significant seizure of crystal methamphetamine for this area.”
Anyone with any information regarding drug trafficking is urged to contact their local RCMP Detachment.
