Six Nations police lay drug charges after traffic stop

January 29, 2021  By Canadian Press


A man with a history of drug charges visiting a house allegedly occupied by someone with a similar criminal past piqued the interest of Six Nations Police on Tuesday.

So officers decided to follow the man’s silver Honda Odyssey as it made its way from the house on Chiefswood Road to a Hagersville business.

Police say the vehicle did a full loop around the building before backing into a loading area with its trunk open.

When police pulled the van over after it left the loading dock, officers noticed a meth pipe on the floor between the driver and passenger seats.

A search of the van unearthed unspecified quantities of fentanyl, methamphetamine, cocaine and pills, along with baggies, cash, cellphones and a digital scale.

Police arrested and charged the three people in the van _ a 50-year-old man from Hagersville, a 40-year-old man from Ohsweken and a 25-year-old woman from Ohsweken _ with possession of fentanyl for the purpose of trafficking and possession of proceeds of crime, as well as failure to comply with a release order.

The Hagersville man was also charged with possessing methamphetamine for the purpose of trafficking.

The three were held for a bail hearing.
