A Toronto man is among a trio of people charged in a drug raid at a residence on St. Anne’s Road this month.

Greater Sudbury Police said detectives from the drug enforcement unit executed a search warrant at the residence on June 7, seizing fentanyl, cocaine and oxycodone as well as a large quantity of cash. The estimated street value of the drugs seized is $14,800.

Police said they believe the illegal drugs made their way north from a supplier in Southern Ontario.

Three people were charged as a result of the raid.

A 35-year-old Toronto man was charged with one count each of possession for the purpose of trafficking, possession of a controlled substance and possession of property obtained by crime.

GSPS said the investigation also led them to two people they describe as “local drug traffickers.” The two were arrested on Beatty Street at the intersection of Alder Street on June 13. Police said at the time of their arrest, the two were in possession of fentanyl, cocaine and crystal methamphetamine, as well as a large quantity of cash. The estimated street value of the drugs police said the pair had on them was $18,500.

A 43-year-old Sudbury man was charged with possession of fentanyl, cocaine and methamphetamine for the purpose of trafficking and possession of property obtained by crime.

As well, a 29-year-old Sudbury woman has been charged with possession of fentanyl, cocaine and methamphetamine for the purpose of trafficking.

Both had an appearance in bail court on June 14.
