THUNDER BAY – City police say they’ve seized $16,000 worth of powdered fentanyl, a fentanyl patch, cocaine and oxycodone pills in a bust in the 100 block of North Windemere Avenue.

A total of $13,350 in cash was also seized in the raid.

Police, in a release issued on Friday, said they’ve arrested a 46-year-old female suspect and a 51-year-old male suspect, who appeared in court on Friday and were remanded into custody. They’re facing four counts each off drug possession and one count each of drug trafficking.

Police said they wore biohazard gear during the search because of the belief powdered fentanyl was present.
