Four individuals are appearing in Swift Current Provincial Court this morning facing a long series of charges following a traffic stop on Friday, August 18.

The four occupants of the vehicle are currently charged with 47 charges, including Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking, Possession of Proceeds of Crime, Possession of a Prohibited Weapon, Obstruction, and Breach of a Recognizance.
Arrested and charged are:
