Blood Tribe police seized a quantity of cocaine and arrested four people in connection with a weekend bust.

Members of the Blood Tribe police’s drug task force, along with its community policing unit and the RCMP police dog services, executed a search warrant at a home in Moses Lake on May 6.

Four people were arrested at the home and a subsequent search of the property resulted in police finding 14 grams of suspected cocaine, eight grams of suspected crack cocaine and $775 in Canadian cash.

A man was arrested and charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking crack cocaine and possession of property/currency obtained by crime. The charges were subsequently withdrawn, court documents show.

The other individuals arrested at the home were released without charges.
