On Sunday, April 5, 2009 around 3:00 PM Portage la Prairie RCMP conducted a search warrant under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act.

The search was done on a residence in the 500 block of 2nd St NW. The search lasted just over an hour with police seizing cocaine, marijuana, and various drug paraphernalia. The investigation led to the arrest of four people, 3 men and one woman. A 26 year old woman and a 45 year old man, both of Portage la Prairie, and a 28 year old man from Sandy Bay are facing charges of possession of a controlled substance.

Trafficking controlled substances charges are pending against the 25 year old resident. All four people were released to appear in court at the end of May.
