Cocaine, cash and other contraband seized in separate northern Manitoba RCMP raids - Winnipeg

A total of five people were arrested last week in Flin Flon when two separate drug investigations wrapped up on the same day, Manitoba RCMP say.

On April 17, RCMP searched a home on Centennial Crescent in the northern Manitoba city, and seized 112 grams of cocaine, as well as guns, drug paraphernalia, and a ‘large amount’ of cash.

A 60-year-old man and a 54-year-old woman were arrested at the scene and will appear before a Flin Flon court this summer.
