A Thursday morning drug raid in Wallaceburg led to four people facing drug trafficking charges.
Members of the Lambton County Community Street Crimes Unit (CSCU) and Organized Crime Enforcement Bureau of the OPP, along with members of Chatham-Kent Police Service (CKPS) Intelligence Section and Critical Incident Response Team (CIRT) executed the search warrant at a residence on Dufferin Avenue.
Police say a quantity of suspected Fentanyl was seized with a total value estimated at $5,000.
Four people, a 30-year-old Sarnia woman, two Wallaceburg men, aged 53 adn 35, and a Wallaceburg woman, 33, all face possession for the purpose of trafficking charges.
