Caledon OPP says that what started as a vehicle stop ended with drug and weapons-related charges.
On Thursday at around 11 a.m., police attempted to stop a vehicle during traffic enforcement efforts on Highway 10, when a vehicle failed to stop.
The vehicle in question was later found after it was involved in a collision.
When officers searched the vehicle, they found cocaine, opioids, and unauthorized firearms and ammunition.
A 20-year-old man from Brampton and the driver, a 20-year-old man from Welland, are facing charges of possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking, possession of an opioid for the purpose of trafficking, as well as multiple counts of unauthorized possession of firearms, possession of a firearm knowing the serial number was tampered with, and violation of prohibition orders.
The driver is also charged with dangerous operation and flight from a peace officer. Both men appeared for a bail hearing.
