$360,000 drugs bust in Thorold leads to 4 people being charged

Four people will appear in a St. Catharines court tomorrow after being charged in relation to a drugs bust in Thorold earlier this week.

The Niagara Regional Police Services says that after a nearly three-months-long investigation into the distribution of illegal drugs throughout Niagara Region, street crime detectives obtained a search warrant and moved in on a residence in Thorold on Wednesday (April 6). After executing the warrant, a loaded 9-millimetre firearm, 825 grams of crystal methamphetamine, 637 grams of fentanyl, 58 grams of cocaine, and $2,100 believed to be from the proceeds of crime was seized.

The combined estimated street value is $360,000, NRPS says.
