Charges have been laid following a drug trafficking investigation in Moncton.

Codiac RCMP’s Crime Reduction Unit began investigating in August 2022.

Two people of interest were identified in October and a 38-year-old man was arrested in the Dieppe area.

Search warrants were subsequently obtained for a vehicle and a hotel room. During the searches, police seized quantities of crystal methamphetamine, cocaine, hydromorphone, benzimidazole pills, and money.

A 38-year-old man and a 40-year-old woman, who are both from Moncton are now facing charges of:

Possession for the purpose of trafficking methamphetamine
Possession for the purpose of trafficking cocaine
Possession for the purpose of trafficking fentanyl
Possession for the purpose of trafficking hydromorphone

The man is scheduled to return to court next week.
