Two Brampton residents are facing charges following a recent police investigation.
On Wednesday, July 27, members of Thunder Bay police’s Intelligence Unit executed a search warrant at a Lincoln Street residence in south Thunder Bay.
“The warrant was obtained as a result of an ongoing investigation into drug trafficking activity in that area,” said police.
Officers located and seized a quantity of suspected crack cocaine, a quantity of suspected fentanyl, cash, and paraphernalia consistent with drug trafficking.
Police say they also located a loaded handgun and a device “consistent with allowing a semi-automatic firearm to be discharged as an automatic firearm.”
Multiple suspects were located inside the home, two of whom were arrested.
