Police charged three men, including a 65-year-old Thunder Bay man, with trafficking fentanyl Wednesday. After an investigation into suspected drug trafficking activity in the city, Thunder Bay police obtained a search warrant for a Cumberland Street South residence, police said in a news release Nov. 5. “The warrant was executed Nov. 4, with assistance from members of the emergency task unit,” police said. “Police seized a quantity of suspected fentanyl, an amount of cash exceeding $5,000, and paraphernalia consistent with drug trafficking.” The Thunder Bay man and two men from southern Ontario were charged with trafficking fentanyl and possession of proceeds of property obtained by crime over $5,000. A 22-year-old suspect from Kitchener also faces charges of failure to comply with a release order and breach of recognizance. The accused have been remanded into custody following initial court appearances.
