A pair of Winnipeg men are facing charges following a drug bust in Portage la Prairie last week.
Portage RCMP were called to a report of two men selling drugs in a black truck at a business on Saskatchewan Avenue West around 9:10 a.m. Friday.
Officers found the truck and arrested two men without incident.
A subsequent search of the truck — which had previously been reported stolen from Winnipeg — found imitation guns, a machete, bear spray, and meth, according to RCMP.
