A 43-year-old man from Nipawin was charged with two counts of drug trafficking last week.

On October 14, RCMP were patroling around, looking for a man known to be on a warrant.

As part of their investigation, officers conducted a vehicle stop in Nipawin where the wanted man was found and arrested.

During his arrest, officers located five grams of methamphetamine, seven grams of fentanyl, a sum of cash and drug trafficking paraphernalia. Alvin Thomas appeared in court in Carrot River on October 15.
