LETHBRIDGE, AB – On January 21, 2022, at about 3:30 am, Taber Police Service arrested a woman on multiple drugs charges.

Police were made aware of a complaint of a speeding truck in the community. A Senior Constable on patrol located the suspect vehicle and initiated a traffic stop.

The driver of the vehicle was found to be unlicensed and could not provide insurance or registration. It was later found that the driver had warrants outstanding for her arrest.

During the investigation, the Taber Police located approximately 75 grams of Crystal Methamphetamine, 6.3 grams of suspected Carfentanil, a small amount of cocaine, almost $600 in cash, and assorted paraphernalia.
