Police, while on routine patrol, noticed a vehicle swerving and driving erratically on Highway 11, just north of Campbell Road in Severn Township, on Saturday.
As a result, uniformed Orillia OPP officers stopped the vehicle and "upon speaking with the driver, were given cause to enter into a drug investigation," notes a release from the OPP.
The three occupants were removed from the vehicle and arrested. A search of the vehicle uncovered quantities of cocaine, heroin, fentanyl, cannabis and methamphetamine as well as a stash of Canadian cash and a knife.
As a result, two Toronto residents - Chance Allick, 22, and Ta Jaun Greaves, 21 - are facing multiple charges including possession of property obtained by crime, possession/trafficking of cocaine, opioids and meth as well as possession and distribution of illicit cannabis.
The other person in the vehicle, who cannot be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, was also charged with the same offences. However, that person was also charged with two counts of carrying a concealed weapon, possession of a weapon for dangerous purpose and a failure to comply with a court order.
All three suspects were held for a bail hearing and remanded into custody.
