A warrant has been issued for a man facing drug trafficking charges after he failed to show up for court.
Ernest Bartlett is facing charges of possession for the purpose of trafficking fentanyl, methamphetamine and cocaine.
The charges against Bartlett as well as Michael Woiwood and Kori Fiscus were approved on Nov. 15 following a summertime investigation by the Campbell River Street Crimes Unit.

Police are asking the public to call the Campbell River RCMP at 250-286-6221 if they know where Bartlett is. The public should not approach him themselves, police say.
The charges have not been proven in court.
