Two people are facing charges after Mounties conducted a targeted traffic stop along a Lower Sackville highway.
The RCMP said on April 29, they followed up on an ongoing drug trafficking investigation with additional enforcement.
Units from the provincial police force and Halifax Regional Police assisted in conducting a targeted traffic stop on Highway 101. There, they were able to arrest the driver, a 30-year-old man from Lower Sackville.
A search of the vehicle resulted in the seizure of cocaine, methamphetamines and cash.
Later that night, officers searched a home on Quinella Crescent in the municipality, where they arrested a 26-year-old Lower Sackville woman.
This bust resulted in police finding cocaine, 200 methamphetamine pills, MDMA, drug paraphernalia, more than $15,000 and unstamped tobacco.
Brandon Scott Sanford and Kaitlyn Kristina Starratt have been charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking (two counts) and possession of property obtained by crime.
Both the accused will return to a Dartmouth court in July.
RCMP say the investigation is ongoing.
