A drug raid at a northern Ontario home earlier this week has resulted in the seizure of $70,000 in drugs, including fentanyl, crack and crystal meth, along with the arrest of four people, police say.
Three of the suspects are from southern Ontario and include a 15-year-old from Niagara Falls, a 16-year-old from Whitby and a 28-year-old from Toronto, provincial police said in a social media post.
The fourth suspect is a 64-year-old from Kapuskasing.
They are all charged with drug trafficking and weapons-related offences after several units from the Ontario Provincial Police searched a home on O'Brien Avenue in Kapuskasing on March 26.
