Medicine Hat police say a traffic stop has led to the largest single seizure of fentanyl in the city's history.
On Saturday, an officer pulled over a vehicle along Redcliff Drive in Medicine Hat.
Police say a search turned up about three kilograms of fentanyl, some methamphetamine, two rifles, a semi-automatic shotgun and about $3,200 in cash.
The fentanyl has a street value of nearly $600,000 dollars and could be made into about 30,000 doses, police say.
John Elford, a 52-year-old Edmonton man, faces trafficking and firearms charges, as well as charges of breaching release conditions.
