The Port Hardy RCMP continue to investigate after a search warrant resulted in the seizure of a significant amount of illicit drugs and cash.

On June 20, 2024 Port Hardy RCMP officers initiated a drug trafficking investigation and arrested two individuals in a vehicle near Granville Street and Highway 19. Evidence recovered from the vehicle led officers to execute a search warrant at a location in the 4000 block of Byng Road, Port Hardy. A search of the premises was carried out in the evening of June 20, 2024 and resulted in the seizure of approximately 1.3 kilograms of drugs and over $20,000 in cash.

A detailed report will be submitted to the Public Prosecution Services of Canada requesting charge approval.

The Port Hardy RCMP detachment remains focused on targeting and disrupting illicit drug trafficking in our community stated acting Detachment Commander, Sergeant Trevor Busch.

RCMP urges anyone who may have information regarding drug trafficking or other criminal activity to please contact and report such information to the local Police Detachment.
