A 35-year-old woman is charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking in respect of each of the two drugs, with possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000 and with failing to comply with a release order condition.

Later that same day officers executed a search warrant at a residence on the First Nation.
Both outlets report the same inventory. From the vehicle: about 28 grams of methamphetamine, a small amount of cocaine, and items described as drug trafficking paraphernalia.
