RCMP say Mark David Heickert — a full-patch gang member of the Oshawa Hells Angels — was arrested at a home in Orillia, Ont., without incident.

The 48-year-old man is charged with conspiracy to traffic in cocaine and conspiracy to possess proceeds of crime.

Paul Francis Monahan of Halifax, 61, is charged with several counts including trafficking in marijuana and conspiracy to traffic cocaine.
