Guelph Police Service officers began investigating a man believed to be involved in drug trafficking earlier this year.

On Tuesday, police arrested the suspect as he got out of his vehicle in the city’s south end. Officers said they found two packages of cocaine and some cash during the arrest. They then searched the man’s home and said they found approximately $4,000 worth of cocaine, $16,000 in cash and an airsoft pistol.

A 32-year-old Brampton man is charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking and possessing proceeds of crime over $5,000.
