Police Seize 4 Pounds of Marijuana

For the second time this week over $10,000 of drugs were taken off the streets.

Kenora OPP say they stopped a vehicle early yesterday afternoon on highway 17A.

During the stop police seized 4 and a half pounds of pot valued at $10,800.

As a result 38 year old Ronen Estein and 46 year old Mario Trunzo, both from Winnipeg, have been charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking and possession of property obtained by crime.

Both men answered to the charge in Kenora court earlier today.

It's the second large bust in the city in the past week, as police seized 17 grams of cocaine from a home during a search warrant on Friday.
