Drugs, cash seized in Sidney

Jun 22 2012

Sidney/North Saanich RCMP seized marijuana worth almost $7,000, a small amount of mushrooms and $1,900 in cash from an apartment.

Mounties were called to an apartment in the 9800 block of Fifth Street in Sidney on Tuesday afternoon for a complaint and discovered drugs in the suite.

Officers applied for a search warrant and returned to the suite that night, said RCMP spokeswoman Cpl. Erin Fraser.

No one was home at the time. Fraser said investigators are waiting for the Crown to approve a summons to compel the suspects to face the charges in court.
