RCMP make another coke trafficking bust in Kimberley
UPDATED: Lead photo added
On October 30, RCMP officers seized cocaine during an arrest in Kimberley. A male and female were arrested in Marysville after officers gained sufficient evidence that they were involved in the trafficking of drugs.
A search warrant was obtained for the male’s residence, which was executed right after the arrest. At total of six grams of what was held out to be cocaine, in two separate packages, was seized.
The 38-year-old male is currently in custody facing charges of Possession of a Controlled Substance for the Purpose of Trafficking. A small amount of marijuana was also seized.
In addition he has outstanding warrants from Cranbrook and Saskatchewan and is being held for court. The female has been released and may be charged at a later date.
