The Thunder Bay Police Service has successfully removed a batch of illegal drugs from the community.

An investigation by the city police’s Intelligence Unit has resulted in multiple charges.

In April police began investigating drug trafficking from a residence on Archibald Street South.

A search warrant was obtained through the investigation and was executed on Wednesday.

Roughly $80,000 of cocaine as well as cash and other items associated with drug trafficking were seized and four suspects were arrested.

A 24-year-old Toronto resident and a 16-year-old Whitby resident have been charged with:

• Possession for the purpose of trafficking
• Possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000
• Obstructing a peace officer
• The youth offender has also been charged with breach of a release order

A 54-year-old and 50-year-old Thunder Bay residents have been charged with:

• Possession for the purpose of trafficking
• Possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000

The accused all appeared in court on Thursday and have been remanded into custody with future appearance dates.
