Two people are facing drug and gun charges after police seized a large amount of marijuana and a loaded firearm.
The Windsor Police Drug and Guns Unit executed multiple search warrants in relation to an active drug trafficking investigation on Tuesday.
Police attempted to stop a man in a vehicle in the 1000-block of Pelissier St., but he fled at a high rate of speed. He was then seen on foot near Dougall Ave. and Erie St. W carrying a handgun. Police eventually caught up with a suspect and placed him under arrest.
Another man associated with the investigation was located on Silverdale Dr. and was placed under arrest.
Search warrants were executed at a residence on Patrick Ave. and a number of storage lockers at two separate businesses. Police seized a handgun, 27 lbs of marijuana, methamphetamine, cocaine and currency in excess of $50,000.
A 23-year-old man and a 21-year-old man have been arrested and are facing charges in relation to the investigation.
