The suspect was first arrested on Tuesday and RCMP found methamphetamine, cocaine, cash and evidence of drug trafficking inside his vehicle, a news release said.

The following day a home on Fietz Street in Yorkton was searched where police seized fentanyl along with more cocaine, meth, cash and other evidence of drug trafficking.

The 20-year-old suspect was charged with one count each for the purpose of trafficking methamphetamine, cocaine and fentanyl, as well as possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000.

RCMP said the accused made his first court appearance on Thursday.
