B.C. Police Bust Marijuana-Motorhome Road Trip, Seize 90 Kilos Of Pot In Hope

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 19 Aug, 2015 11:47 AM
    HOPE, B.C. — Mounties say officers in British Columbia's Fraser Valley have seized 90 kilograms of marijuana from a motorhome driven by two Ontario residents.
     
    RCMP Corporal Mike Rail says police detected the smell of pot and stopped the vehicle on Aug. 8 for a road-side sobriety check in Hope, about 150 kilometres east of Vancouver.
     
    He says police arrested a 44-year-old woman and 41-year-old man from Thunder Bay, Ont., after searching the vehicle and seizing the marijuana and a large but undisclosed amount of cash.
     
    Rail says the woman faces a possession charge and police are asking the Crown to lay the same charge against a 41-year-old man.
     
    The man and woman have been released from custody and are expected to appear in court at the end of September.
     
    Their names have not been released.
