That led to the investigation, which resulted in the execution of a search warrant in the town last Friday.
Officers found packages and syringes of drugs, including methamphetamine, cocaine, MDMA and fentanyl. They also seized drug trafficking paraphernalia, cash, a crossbow, three guns and identification cards.

A 29-year-old man from Regina and a 44-year-old man from Southey were arrested and charged with a variety of offences.
“We continue to investigate and analyze all of the drugs seized, but I can tell you that this is a very significant seizure,” Southey RCMP Sgt. Kim Stewart said in a media release.
“One of the things we seized is a jar full of fentanyl rocks. This is an extremely dangerous drug — just a small amount can cause a fatal overdose. Southey RCMP is committed to keeping drugs and firearms out of our communities through proactive, thorough investigations like this one.”
