Thunder Bay police charged two people after cocaine and cash valued at more than $150,000 were seized by officers who executed a search warrant Nov. 5. Both suspects from the Greater Toronto area were arrested and police recovered more than $90,000 in cash, along suspected cocaine as a result of a drug trafficking investigation. “Search warrants were obtained and executed in the area of Court Street South where a man was located inside a vehicle, said police in a news release Friday. When approached by officers, the suspect attempted to run away but was arrested after a brief foot pursuit...A female suspect was later found within a Court Street South residence and was arrested without incident.” Police seized nearly 325 grams of cocaine with an estimated street value of $65,000 and $91,000 cash. A 24-year-old Scarborough man and 26-year-old Toronto woman are each charged with drug trafficking and possession of proceeds of property obtained by crime. The accused were remanded into custody following an initial court appearance.
