A traffic stop in Dauphin has led to an arrest, and the seizure of drugs.
On May 6, at approximately 5:20 pm, officers with the Dauphin RCMP Detachment conducted a traffic stop on a vehicle located on River Avenue.
It was determined that the 29-year-old male driver did not possess a valid driver's licence and, as the driver was exiting the vehicle, the officer observed drug paraphernalia in plain view.
The driver was immediately placed under arrest and, upon their search, officers located a small quantity of drugs believed to be cocaine in his possession.
The three other passengers were also taken into custody.
A search of the vehicle located additional drugs, cash, and drug-related paraphernalia.
A passenger, Wayne Mckay, age 32, was remanded into custody on charges including 2 counts of Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking and Possession of Proceeds of Crime.
The 3 other people also received these same charges but were released with a court date set for June 25th.
