Quesnel RCMP seize large shipment of meth

The Quesnel RCMP Crime Reduction Unit and General Duty members conducted a traffic stop early this morning (Friday) and seized one kilogram of methamphetamine.

Sergeant Richard Weseen says a man and a woman were arrested at around 4 am.

Weseen said the arrest stems from a one-week investigation that focused on the supply of methamphetamine from the Lower Mainland to Quesnel.

“This seizure will have a significant impact on the meth use subculture. The Quesnel RCMP remains committed to holding drug traffickers accountable while making the streets of Quesnel a safer place.”

The man and the woman have since been released from custody and charges are pending.
