Police say they found 3 bottles of capsules, in Port Colborne home

Police have charged three people after a drug bust in Port Colborne.

The investigation of the illegal sale of drugs started this month, involving two suspects, a man and woman.

Police say just before 6, yesterday morning, they used a search warrant on a house in the King and Union Street area, and found about $2,700 worth of hydromorphone pills and capsules.

A 35-year old man, from Port Colborne, and two people in their 20s, also from Port Colborne, were arrested and had bail hearings yesterday in St. Catharines.

They were each charged with three counts of trafficking, but the 35-year old also facing a weapon charge, and failing to comply with probation.
