A man from Meadow Lake and a woman from Alberta appeared in court on Monday after they were arrested with a variety of drugs in their possession.

Last Saturday, RCMP said they stopped a vehicle on Highway 4 in the area.

Police say officers questioned the driver, who provided a false name. Officers later found out the driver was wanted by Meadow Lake RCMP for driving with a suspended license and failing to appear in court.

Police later discovered and seized 280 grams of cocaine, 174 grams of crystal meth, a gram of fentanyl, a knife, ammunition, trafficking paraphernalia, and cash from inside the vehicle.

Officers eventually arrested the man who was driving the vehicle and a woman who was a passenger.
