Man Arrested, Drugs And Weapons Seized In Moncton

A 38-year-old Moncton man facing drug related charges will appear in court tomorrow.

RCMP went to a home on St. George Street last week as a part of an ongoing investigation into stolen property…

While at the home, police saw drugs and prohibited weapons in plain sight.

Members executed a search warrant later the same day and seized prohibited weapons including a conducted energy weapon (Taser), a set of brass knuckles and several prohibited knives, as well as Airsoft rifles and money.

Quantities of what are believed to be hydromorphone pills and various prescription drugs were also seized.

Joseph-Paul Corey Hart was arrested at the scene. He is charged with possession of hydromorphone for the purpose of trafficking.

He remains in custody and will appear for a bail hearing on Wednesday.
