Sarnia Police Vice officers assisted by Uniform Patrol members executed a drug warrant last night.
At about 7:00PM March 19, 2014 officers entered a home in the 100 block of John Street to execute a search warrant. Once inside the home officers located four males ranging in age between 22 years and 51 years old. Three of the men were on Probation and one man in addition to Probation was also on Bail.
A small amount of drugs were found including about 7 grams of marihuana, 46 codeine tablets and methamphetamine.
The 51 year old man, who resides at the home, was charged with trafficking and possession.
One of the 22 year old males, who also lives at the home, was charged with trafficking, breach of bail and 2 counts of breaching his probation.
The 40 year old, a Sarnia resident was charged with 2 counts of breaching his probation.
The second 22 year old man was charged with three counts of breaching his probation and 1 count of trafficking.
