Police made the arrest in Niagara Falls after a man was found dead of overdose

Police have laid drug related charges after a 30-year old man was found dead of a drug overdose in his Thorold home in January.

They looked into the sale of fentanyl, eventually identifying a suspect, and a vehicle allegedly used.

On Thursday, police arrested a 54-year old woman and 41-year old woman in the Crysler Avenue area of Niagara Falls, without incident, and found some fentanyl and money.

The older woman faces a number of charges including failing to comply with a release order, while the younger is charged with trafficking.
