PG RCMP make pair of arrests after Massey Drive stop yields drugs, $14,000

Local Mounties were able to nab two people after a routine traffic stop turned up drugs and cash.

At approximately 6:30 PM on March 19th, members of the Prince George RCMP’s Problem Orientated Policing Unit conducted a stop on a large SUV along Massey Drive.

As a result, officers arrested the two culprits

A search of the vehicle revealed the following:

• 28 grams of cocaine
• 97 grams of Fentanyl
• 3 grams of heroin
• 86 grams of methamphetamine
• Less than a gram of Carfentanil
• Over $14,000 in cash

“This is a great example of how regular traffic enforcement often leads to arrests and drug
seizures” said Sgt. Craig Douglass of the Prince George RCMP.

“Excellent work by these officers removing drugs from the street, which in turn reduces harm to the community.”
