RCMP say a 19-year-old faces a range of charges after a search of his Yellowknife accommodation turned up 84 grams of crack cocaine and more than $20,000 in cash.
The man, who was not named by police, was pulled over by officers in a traffic stop on Thursday last week according to an RCMP news release on Monday morning.
“The man was found to be in possession of seven grams of cocaine and a large knife that was concealed on his person,” police stated.
A subsequent search of his accommodation revealed more cocaine, crack cocaine and the cash, the press release continued.
