A 46-year-old Langley man and 71-year-old Surrey man face possible drug trafficking charges, after a roadside stop in Osoyoos didn’t smell right last weekend (Oct. 4-5).
RCMP were doing a roadside check and pulled over a rental moving truck and Dodge pickup towing a trailer.
Police noticed a strong odour of marijuana coming from the cargo area of the moving truck, and from the trailer.
The two drivers were arrested and their vehicles searched. Police seized 97 mature pot plants from the moving truck and another 115 plants from the trailer.
A shotgun was also seized along with matching 2-way radios from each vehicle. The vehicles were impounded.
