ESTEVAN - The Estevan Police Service arrested two people in a drug bust earlier this week.
Following an investigation by the Estevan Police Service (EPS) drug intelligence and criminal investigation units, search warrants were executed at two separate residences on Nov. 17 by the joint tactical support team.
Support team members were deployed to the Hillside and city central neighborhoods, which resulted in two Estevan residents being arrested and charged for the following offences under the Criminal Code and Controlled Drugs and Substances Act:
- Possession of methamphetamine for the purpose of trafficking;
- Trafficking methamphetamine; and
- Possession of proceeds of crime not exceeding $5,000.
This investigation is ongoing, and as a result the EPS says the names of the involved individuals will not be released.
The Mercury will have more details as they become available.
