Hay River RCMP say they are charging two people, one of them a 17-year-old from Alberta, after a Sunday operation on Saskatoon Drive.
Seven people were initially arrested, police said, but five have since been released without charge.
RCMP said officers found “a small quantity of crack-cocaine, approximately $2500 in cash, and evidence supporting drug trafficking activity” during the search.
The 17-year-old male is charged with offences related to trafficking and possessing property obtained by crime. He was remanded into custody, RCMP said.
A 35-year-old Hay River woman was released to attend court at a later date, police added.

Police did not release their names. The youth cannot be named by law, while the 35-year-old was not named as the charges against her have yet to be sworn in court, RCMP stated.
