A man from Richmond Hill is charged with drug trafficking after police got reports of an armed break-in.

Thunder Bay Police got a call to Brodie Street between Arthur Street and Hardisty Street on Thursday afternoon.

Officers arrived to see a man jumping from an upper-floor window at a nearby home on May Street, who then ran from police on foot.

They tracked him down shortly after, and found cocaine, items consistent with drug trafficking, and cash.

A 21-year-old man is back in custody after appearing in bail court on Friday.
