Missing a little something?

RCMP are looking to ‘reunite’ the owner of a satchel full of cocaine and cash that was left at a local business in Port Hardy.

“The Port Hardy RCMP were called to Hardy Bay Drugstore on March 13 by staff for a brown satchel that had been abandoned,” stated Port Alice Cst. Rebekah Draht in a press release.

Police said the bag appeared to have been left by mistake which contained four ounces of cocaine and over $20,000.

“Thankfully, the owner of the bag was very helpful and also left his identification with his contact information and address,” Draht adds.

Both the cocaine and cash have been seized – the drugs will be destroyed and the cash will be sent to civil forfeiture.

“The Port Hardy RCMP are requesting the individual contact the local detachment should he want to explain the large quantities of money and drugs in his bag.”
