 | RCMP used ion scanners, similar to the ones used to screen for dangerous substances in airports, to test for other drugs. They found trace amounts of the elephant tranquillizer carfentanil and the opioid methylfentanyl on the packages. Two have been charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking heroin, carfentanil and methylfentanyl. They've also been charged with importation of a controlled substance and false representation of a Canadian aviation document.
This is the second seizure of a street drug containing carfentanil in Nova Scotia this month. |
