A routine traffic stop just west of Brandon, Man., last week led police to a massive haul of fentanyl — worth more than $1 million on the street.
Brandon police, alongside Manitoba RCMP, were busy with traffic enforcement on the Trans-Canada Highway Thursday morning, when a vehicle was stopped for a traffic violation.
A search of the car turned up a nine-kilogram bag of fentanyl, which police said has a street value of $1.1 million.
