THUNDER BAY — A 29-year-old individual is facing drug-trafficking charges after police seized cocaine and fentanyl while responding to a call for help on Wednesday morning.
Thunder Bay Police Service officers attended a residence in the 1100 block of Lincoln Street after receiving a call for assistance.
Once inside the residence, officers found an individual inside who was not a resident. The suspect was arrested and through investigation, police learned the individual was under a court order not to be present at that address.
A quantity of suspected cocaine and fentanyl were seized along with cash, a knife and paraphernalia consistent with drug-trafficking.
The 29-year-old accused was charged with possession of cocaine and fentanyl for the purpose of trafficking, possession of property obtained by crime under $5,000, failure to comply with a probation order and failure to comply with a release order.
The accused appeared in court on Thursday and remains in custody with a future court appearance date.
It is Newswatch policy not to name people facing criminal accusations when we are unlikely to follow the case to its conclusion in the courts.
