A Swift Current woman is in custody following an investigation into drug trafficking by Saskatchewan RCMP. On Feb. 12, multiple units of the RCMP executed a search warrant at a home on the 1100 block of Winnie Street East in Swift Current. The operation was described by the service as part of an ongoing drug trafficking investigation. A woman was arrested during the operation at the home. In a related enforcement action, two other women were arrested in a vehicle at a business on 6th Avenue Northeast and South Service Road. While searching both the home and the vehicle, police seized approximately 109 grams of powder cocaine and a “small amount” of methamphetamine, in addition to other evidence of drug trafficking. As a result of the investigation, a 31-year-old woman from Swift Current faces one count of possessing cocaine for the purpose of trafficking. The other two women who were arrested were later released without charges. The accused will make her first appearance in provincial court on March 12.
