Clint Nepinak is scheduled to return to court in Winnipeg next month.
The 28-year-old Dauphin resident was arrested following an incident near Ste Rose on January 15th.
Early that morning an RCMP officer stopped to help a man change a tire along Highway 5, and upon noticing the vehicle had no license plates, the officer questioned the man, who didn’t have any registration or bill of sale, and gave what was suspected to be a fake name.
The Mountie searched the vehicle and found open liquor and several bags containing what was believed to be crystal meth, prescription drugs, and various gift cards.
A search of the suspect turned up a bag of what was believed to be cocaine, empty baggies, and multiple cell phones.
Nepinak's next court date is set for March 1st.
