A 52 year old Charlottetown man has been charged with Possession of Fentanyl for the purpose of trafficking; and possession of a weapon for dangerous purposes. He was arrested Tuesday night as the Charlottetown Police Street Crime Unit executed a search warrant at a home on University Avenue. That search resulted in the seizure of a quantity of fentanyl, a replica firearm, other drug paraphernalia and $1300 in cash. A woman was also arrested but then later released without charges.
The man has been remanded in custody and will soon appear in Provincial Court.
