Arrest leads to charge of trafficking cocaine
One individual is facing charges of trafficking cocaine. On Saturday just after midnight, Vernon RCMP officers
noticed a vehicle that appeared to operate in a manner that was
consistent with drug dealing. "Police formed reasonable grounds to determine the male
operating the vehicle was trafficking drugs from his vehicle," said
Gord Molendyk, RCMP spoksperson. The suspect — a 32-year-old Vernon man — was arrested as he returned to his vehicle in the area of 32nd Street and 39th Avenue. "The suspect was found to be in possession of suspected crack cocaine a quantity of cash," said Molendyk. He has been released from custody and is expected to
make a court appearance in June to answer to the charges of trafficking
in a controlled substance. "This type of enforcement remains a priority of the Vernon/North Okanagan detachment to identify, and disrupt the sale and
distribution of drugs," said Molendyk.
