RCMP say they have removed between 50- to 70-thousand-dollars worth of drugs from the streets after a pair of recent drug busts at the Richardson International Airport in Winnipeg.
Members of the Manitoba Integrated Law Enforcement Team and Roving Traffic Units conducted the seizure, first stopping a passenger who was en route to Gods Lake Narrows.
They say 49 grams of meth was seized from 32-year-old Kenneth Ross of Gods Lake Narrows, who was arrested and charged with one count of possession for the purpose of trafficking.
Then three days later, they searched another passenger - this time a woman headed for Gods River, and seized 67 grams of cocaine and 56 grams of meth following a search.
Forty-year-old Tanya Okemow faces two counts of possession for a purpose of trafficking.
