A search warrant executed by numerous Grande Prairie RCMP entities has led to a significant drug bust and three arrests.
According to police, members of the Grande Prairie RCMP Drug Section, RCMP Police Dog Services, and RCMP Crime Reduction Unit executed a search warrant at a residence in Countryside South.
As a result of the search, police seized 110.4 grams of cocaine, $23,378 in cash, and what police are calling “drug trafficking paraphernalia.”
Following the investigation, 19-year-old Edmonton resident Jamal Mustafa, 56-year-old Sangudo resident Lenz Thorsten, and 45-year-old Whitecourt resident Dawn Purschke, have been charged with alleged possession for trafficking and possession of proceeds of a crime.
All three have been released on conditions and are scheduled to appear at the Alberta Court of Justice in Grande Prairie on April 29th.
