An Onion Lake woman is facing charges in Lloydminster, Saskatchewan court after police reported finding illicit drugs in a vehicle.

On Feb. 16 around 8:00 p.m., Onion Lake RCMP were on patrol when they saw an SUV that had fled from police the previous day. The vehicle was parked outside a home in Onion Lake.

Officers put on their lights and pulled in behind the SUV. Following further investigation, police seized approximately 19 grams of methamphetamine, along with a sword and a hatchet, from inside the vehicle.

An adult female was arrested at the scene.

The woman is charged with one count of possession for the purpose of trafficking methamphetamine. She is scheduled to appear in Lloydminster, Saskatchewan Provincial Court on April 15.

Now an Alberta/Western Canada resident, you would be hard-pressed to find a stronger proponent of Lloydminster than the news guy that appreciates a healthy dose of rock music and dress code leather. His mantra is focus on one thing and do it well.
