Prince George RCMP have arrested two people as part of a drug trafficking investigation in the Pinewood and Southridge areas.

A 35-year-old man and a 27-year-old woman were apprehended after members of the detachment's drug task force executed search warrants on a 3700-block Pinewood Avenue home and a 3300-block St. Francis Court home on Thursday at about 10 p.m.

The warrants were the result of an investigation that included the seizure of over an ounce of cocaine, a substantial amount of the date-rape drug Gamma HydroxyButyrate (GHB) and cash, during a vehicle stop earlier that evening.

During the search of the residences, officers located and seized multiple ounces of cocaine and over $20,000 in cash, RCMP said.

The two have since been released on on conditions until their first appearance in court, still to be scheduled. Multiple charges under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act are anticipated, RCMP said.
