Thunder Bay – News – In a significant bust, city police have confiscated a large amount of cocaine from a home on the south side of Thunder Bay.
Officers from the Thunder Bay Police Service’s Primary Response Branch were dispatched to a residential property on the city’s south side shortly after 9 a.m. on Saturday, June 3. The call was in response to the discovery of narcotics in a rental property.
Upon investigation, it was learned that the owner of the residence had come across a suspicious package while clearing out the property after it had become vacant.

The police seized the suspected narcotics, which included a significant amount of cocaine along with a quantity of psilocybin, commonly known as Magic Mushrooms.
The estimated street value of the seized narcotics exceeds a staggering $140,000.
Investigations into the matter are still ongoing.
