The NRP has arrested four men from Ottawa in connection to a fraudulent prescription case.
The investigation began yesterday, when one of the men had what appeared to be a valid prescription.
He requested that a family member pick it up for him, saying he had COVID-19 and was self-isolating.
Four males arrived at the pharmacy near Valley Way and Stanley Avenue in Niagara Falls.
One of the men passed a fraudulent prescription in an attempt to obtain liquid Hydrocodone.
Police arrived on the scene and arrested all four of the men.
Twenty-two year old William Sprague, 22 year old Zakariah Mohamud, 23 year old Ahmed Sahil Waziry and 23 year old Hassan Mairane are facing several charges, including Possession of a Schedule I Substance and Conspiracy to Commit and indictable Offence.
Police also seized the car they were traveling in - a black 2018, 4 door Honda Accord with an Ontario license plate.
A car similar to the one seized can be found below.
Investigators believe there may be similar incidents involving these males and this vehicle across the province.
Anyone with information about this or similar incidents is asked to contact detective Josh Harris at 9667@niagarapolice.ca or 905-688-4111, extension 1029667.
