Two men on bail for alleged drug offences in Alberta and Ontario face more charges after Fort Resolution RCMP seized a quantity of cocaine and firearms while responding to a report of shots fired.
On March 25th at approximately 5:36 p.m. police received a report that several shots had been fired inside a residence and a person was possibly in danger.
Officers attended and found several people who were not tenants of the residence, along with “obvious evidence of drug trafficking and a loaded firearm,” stated a release.
Upon the execution of a search warrant, police located approximately 465 grams of suspected crack cocaine, 79 grams of illicit cannabis, two loaded sawn-off shotguns, $500 in cash as well as several cell phones and other drug paraphernalia.
As a result of the investigation, 24-year-old Karrar Al-Dabagh of Ontario, and 23-year-old Mohammed Sessay of Edmonton have both been charged with drug, firearms and failure to comply with court order offences.
A third individual, a 42-year-old female from the Northwest Territories, was released on an undertaking to appear in court at a later date.
