Thompson RCMP Seize Approximately 265 Grams of Cocaine, Three Face Charges

Thompson RCMP say officers seized approximately 265 grams of cocaine and Canadian currency after checking a parked vehicle on Laval on Nov. 8, 2026. Two people were charged and remanded, while the driver was released and is facing charges.

Officers with the Crime Suppression Unit were on patrol at 12:48 a.m. when they spotted the vehicle in a lot, police said. Its back door was open and there was no driver.

Officers approached and saw a man and a woman in the back seat with several bags. While police spoke with them, a woman came out of a nearby residence and identified herself as the driver, according to the RCMP.

Police said their initial investigation indicated the female passenger was breaching conditions and the male passenger had given officers a fraudulent name. Both were taken into custody. A search of bags uncovered the cocaine and currency.
