Three people are facing charges after police allegedly seized drugs and weapons from an alleged stolen vehicle earlier this week.
Police say on October 6th, they tracked what is believed to be a stolen vehicle to Happy Trails campground when they saw a man lock the vehicle and walk away toward a trailer. Police say the man was quickly taken into custody, and after determining the trailer was also stolen, seized both.
A search of the trailer led to the arrest of two more individuals within as well as the seizure of around 300 grams of cocaine, a loaded handgun, a stolen SKS rifle and ammunition.
As a result, a 25-year-old man from Beaverlodge, as well as a 24-year-old man and 21-year-old woman from Grande Prairie are facing charges including possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking and unauthorized possession of a firearm.
