Collingwood OPP arrest 5 for drug, weapon offences in relation to Centre Wellington robbery

Collingwood OPP say they’ve arrested five individuals from the Collingwood and Greater Toronto areas for drug- and weapon-related offences in relation to a weekend armed robbery that took place in Centre Wellington, Ont.

On Saturday, officers arrested four individuals following an armed robbery that same day in Centre Wellington. That investigation led Collingwood OPP to execute a search warrant at a Second Street home in Collingwood.

After they executed the search warrant, officers seized methamphetamine, fentanyl, a pistol and ammunition, and laid more than 30 charges for drug and weapon offences.
