On June 4, 2011, just before 3:30pm, Portage la Prairie RCMP executed a Controlled Drugs and Substances Act search warrant at a residence in the 400 block of Royal Road North in Portage la Prairie, Manitoba.

350 grams of marijuana along with numerous firearms and stolen property were located and seized from the residence.

An adult male and an adult female, both of Portage la Prairie Manitoba, were arrested for possession for the purpose of trafficking, possession of stolen property over $5,000, unsafe storage of a firearm and unauthorized possession of firearm. Both have been released on a promise to appear in Provincial Court on August 8, 2011, in Portage la Prairie.

Anyone with information regarding the drug trafficking is asked to call their local police agency or RCMP Detachment.

Police continue to investigate.
