A 29-year-old Miramichi, N.B., woman has been arrested for alleged drug trafficking.

Miramichi police began an investigation related to an interprovincial drug trafficker in April and arrested the woman on May 28.

Officers also reportedly seized over 1.5 kilograms of suspected methamphetamine in the arrest, according to a social media post from Miramichi police on Monday.

The woman was taken into custody and turned over to Correctional Services of Canada as she was out on parole, police say.

She’s facing charges of possession for the purpose of trafficking methamphetamine and is set to appear in court at a later date.

The drug trafficking still remains under investigation.
