Sarnia Police Uniform Patrol officers charged three adult males for various offences after conducting a traffic stop on Saturday October 10, 2015.
Just before 9:00 p.m. the officers stopped the car on Carlton Place for a traffic violation. It was discovered the plates did not belong on the vehicle and that the car was not registered to any of the three males in the car. The 26 year old driver was arrested for traffic violations and an 18 year old passenger was arrested for an outstanding warrant from Windsor. All three males were also on terms of probation. While dealing with the occupants of the car the officers noted signs of controlled substances and conducted a search of the vehicle.
The search revealed just over 26 grams of methamphetamine and about 4 grams of marihuana. The combined street value of the drugs is estimated to be $3,440.00. All three males, including a second 21 year old passenger, were charged and are in custody awaiting bail hearings. They face charges including possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking, possession of a controlled substance and breaching their probation.
