Story out of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan:
Police say a disturbance at the Saskatoon John G. Diefenbaker International Airport on Friday morning has resulted in drug charges. Police said a man was apparently displeased that his flight was not operating on time and made a verbal reference to causing damage with explosives.
“We had a call to our security operations center of an incident at a check-in counter of an air carrier,” said Richard Jasieniuk, airport public safety and risk manager.
“At that point, we immediately enacted our response plan. Our contract security guard, an on duty manager and myself responded to the area,”
The 51-year-old man was arrested. Upon being searched, drugs and a significant amount of money were found in his luggage.
“When the officers arrested him, they found him in possession of a substantial amount of money as well as cocaine and methamphetamine,” said Sgt. Lee Jones, with Saskatoon Police Service.
The suspect is known to police. “We’ve had past dealing with him and he had a past conviction for drug trafficking,” Jones said.
According to police, the investigation is ongoing due to the large amount of cash found on the individual. Cont. (Video)
