Provincial police say officers seized crack cocaine, cash and laid several charges during a traffic stop in Wasaga Beach.

The officers were on patrol along Mosley Street early Friday afternoon when they pulled over a vehicle to investigate suspected impaired driving.

Police say during the officer’s interaction with the driver they decided her ability to be behind the wheel was impaired by drugs, leading to her arrest at the scene.

Following her arrest, police say they found items consistent with drug trafficking, along with the drugs and an undisclosed amount of money.

The woman, from Springwater Township, faces charges of impaired driving, failing or refusing to comply with demand, possession of a substance for the purpose of trafficking, and possession of proceeds obtained by crime under $5,000.

In addition, because of the impaired driving charge, her driver’s licence was suspended for 90 days and the vehicle was impounded for seven days. She will have to appear in court to answer to the charges next month.
