A Prince George man and woman are under investigation after Vanderhoof RCMP seized a "significant" amount of drugs late Monday night.

A vehicle parked outside a closed business at about 11:30 p.m. drew RCMP's attention and pulled it over when some errant driving was seen.

The odour of marijuana was immediately noticed and the two were arrested, RCMP said.

A subsequent search of the vehicle uncovered marijuana, cocaine, heroin and methamphetamine as well as drug paraphernalia.

Charges against the two remain pending, but on Friday, Dale Al West was sentenced to 22 days in jail and prohibited from driving for two years  driving while disqualified under the Criminal Code and breaching probation.
