It’s believed, RCMP say, that the suspect was driving the vehicle while impaired by drugs, and subsequently failed an examination.

After the arrest, RCMP obtained a search warrant for the hotel where the suspect was residing. The search resulted in another seizure that allegedly included a loaded 12 gauge shotgun, hundreds of rounds of ammo, and other drug trafficking-related items. The suspect has a lifetime firearms prohibition, police note.

• Possession of oxycodone for the purpose of trafficking;
