Suspects caught with suspected drugs; charges laid: SPS

Sarnia Police Service building in Sarnia, Ont. as seen on July 2, 2025. (Reta Ismail/CTV News London) Sarnia police have laid charges after two suspects were found with drugs near Exmouth Street. A police officer that was on patrol, was at a grocery store and said they saw two people in a 'concealed position' behind a dumpster in the marking lot. When police approached, two men were seen. The first man was sat on the ground with a fresh piece of foil, according to the Sarnia Police Service, and looked like they were about to smoke an 'illicit substance'. The man got startled and spilled the substance on the ground, and it was unrecoverable. The SPS confirmed one of the men was bound by two probation orders and a judicial release order. Both had conditions to not go to that specific grocery store, a news release outlined. A 63-year-old Sarnia man of no fixed address was served a trespassing offence notice. The second man, 41, of no fixed address, was held for bail on four counts of breach of probation and failure to comply with a release order. The SPS said the 41-year-old man has been arrested seven times since August 2024, has been charged with breach of probation 18 times, and this marked the 33rd interaction with police.

The accused faces charges including drug trafficking, flight from a peace officer, dangerous operation of a vehicle and failure to comply with a probation order. The details At about 7:15 p.m. on July 29, the North Bay Police Service was alerted by Windsor Police regarding an active investigation. The suspect also had an outstanding warrant from a prior North Bay incident for fleeing police and cocaine trafficking. Officers located the man in North Bay and attempted to stop his vehicle using two police cruisers. 'When officers attempted to stop and contain his vehicle using two police cruisers, the accused rammed the vehicles and fled the scene,' police said in a news release. OPP officers, including the canine unit, assisted in tracking the suspect. He was later apprehended without further incident and transported back to North Bay, where he was formally charged.

'Criminals operate without borders, across the province and within our communities, and it is imperative that our police services and members do so as well,' McFarlane said. 'This arrest highlights the importance of inter-agency cooperation and the commitment of our officers, who acted quickly and effectively to locate and apprehend a wanted individual who posed a significant risk to public safety. Despite dangerous circumstances, officers persisted in their efforts and brought this incident to a safe conclusion.'
