During a traffic stop on Vermillion Place on June 14th, the Dauphin RCMP seized 157 grams of methamphetamine, 5 grams of cocaine, cash, and other drug-related paraphernalia.
When officers approached the vehicle, they discovered that 40-year-old Trevor Sutherland, who had two outstanding Warrants of Arrest for trafficking methamphetamine and other firearms-related offenses, was in the passenger's seat.
Officers searched a backpack that belonged to Sutherland which contained the seized items. He was then arrested and remanded into custody on charges of Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking, Possession of Cocaine, and Possession of Property Obtained by Crime.
Sutherland is also facing previous charges from investigations where methamphetamine was seized following two separate search warrants. An investigation is underway.
