Drug Busts


Three separate drug investigations in the Rainy River district have resulted in the seizure of thousands of dollars worth of illegal drugs and charges against one man.

A 57-year-old resident of Rainy River faces trafficking charges after OPP seized nearly $4,500 worth of prescription pills and a large quantity of cash.

A search of two other homes in Rainy River and Emo led police to finding 34 marihuana plants and 860-grams of dried marihuana valued at $5,200.

No charges have yet been laid in those cases.
