Police say nearly half a kilogram of cocaine was seized in a drug trafficking investigation in Fort McMurray. Alberta’s Law Enforcement Response Team (ALERT) said officers seized 420 grams of cocaine, almost $27,000 in cash, as well as other evidence of drug trafficking at a Fort McMurray home in the Lower Townsite neighbourhood on Sept. 24. One 19-year-old from Edmonton has been arrested and faces drug trafficking, possession of drugs for the purposes of trafficking, and possession of property obtained by crime charges. A warrant has been issued for another 19-year-old Edmontonian who faces two charges of drug trafficking.
