St.Paul RCMP have two men they believe were trafficking drugs in the Saddle Lake area. Police say on April 24th they tried to stop a stolen pickup truck but it sped off after a passenger jumped out. The passenger was arrested and the truck was later found abandoned near Highway 652. Mounties were able to find and arrest the driver a little later using a police dog.
RCMP are saying that over $2100 and pills believed to have been opioids were found with the two men. A 26 year old from Red Earth Creek and a 19 year old from Saddle Lake are facing charges including trafficking and possession of stolen property. They’ll both be in St. Paul Provincial Court on May 10th.
