During the early morning hours of April 12, 2009, the Roblin RCMP with assistance from the Ethelbert and Grandview RCMP, executed a search warrant issued under the controlled drugs and substances act at a residence on Valley River First Nation, Manitoba.

Aaron Grant Cloud (known as Grant Cloud), 44, and Angela Faith Cloud (known as Angel Cloud), 48, were arrested and have been charged with Possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act. There were others present in the home including two young children. Marihuana, cash, and other drug paraphernalia was seized.

Grant Cloud is currently serving on the Valley River First Nation band council.

Both adults were released from custody with conditions and will be making their first court appearances on May 21, 2009, in Roblin Provincial Court.

The Roblin RCMP would like to encourage members of the public who have any information pertaining to drug trafficking in the area to come forward so that the RCMP can continue its efforts to deal with this issue.  Drug trafficking in the area is a priority of the RCMP and effective enforcement would not be possible without the assistance of the citizens in this area.
