SUDBURY -- Two men from Quebec stopped during a RIDE check near Chapleau on Dec. 3 are facing several charges.
Police pulled the pair over at 11:35 a.m. at a checkpoint on Highway 667 in Nimitz Township.
"While speaking with a motorist, officers observed unmarked cigarettes in plain view," police said in a news release Monday.
A search of the vehicle led to the discovery of about $10,000 in cash, as well as what police suspect was cocaine, methamphetamine and cannabis. Police also found edged weapons and bear spray.
A 31-year-old from Weedon, Que., is charged with two counts of trafficking and one count of possession of property obtained by crime.
A 32-year-old from Quebec City is facing the same charges.
Both accused were released from custody and are scheduled to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice on Feb. 8 in Chapleau.
