After searching the homes, police said officers seized 1,988.6 grams of cocaine, 43 MDMA pills, a conducted-energy weapon, brass knuckles, $17,280 in cash, several cell phones and “assorted paraphernalia consistent with drug trafficking.”
“Following continued investigation to date, four men, age 23, 24, 29, and 32, and two women, age 28 and 35, have been charged with a combination of several drug, weapon, breach, and proceeds of crime related offences,” the Saskatoon Police Service said in a statement.
Asked why information on arrests made in October was not released until Monday, a police spokesperson said investigators were still working on the file and processing evidence “up until very recently.”
