Six arrested after search of North Syndicate Avenue residence

THUNDER BAY— Six people were arrested as a result of a search of a southside home on Wednesday.

Thunder Bay Police Service officers and the OPP’s organized crime enforcement bureau executed a search warrant at a residence in the 700 block of North Syndicate Avenue.

Quantities of suspected cocaine and fentanyl were seized as well as some cash.

Three individuals from Thunder Bay and three from the Greater Toronto area are facing charges of: possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking, possession of fentanyl for the purpose of trafficking and possession of proceeds of crime under $5,000.

All of the accused appeared in court on Thursday and remain in custody with future court appearance dates.

It is Newswatch policy not to name people facing criminal accusations when the case is unlikely to be followed to its conclusion through the courts.
