Shelburne County District RCMP has charged a woman with drug trafficking after responding to a single motor vehicle crash.
On May 26, at approximately 1:07 p.m., Shelburne County District RCMP responded to a report of a single vehicle crash on Upper Clyde Rd. RCMP officers learned that a Jeep Grand Cherokee was travelling along Clyde Rd. when the driver lost control of the vehicle. The Jeep then left the roadway and struck a house.
The sole occupant of the home, a 41-year-old man, sustained minor injuries and was treated at the scene by EHS. The driver of the vehicle, Tamera Paige Smith of Amirault Hills, and the passenger, a 68-year-old woman of Clark's Harbour, were uninjured.
During a search of the vehicle and a bag the driver was carrying at the scene, officers located a quantity of cocaine, cash, and drug paraphernalia consistent with drug trafficking.
Smith was safely arrested and has been charged with Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking (cocaine). She appeared in Yarmouth Provincial Court on May 27 and was released on conditions pending future court appearances.
The investigation is ongoing.
