Ontario Provincial Police executed a search warrant on a home in Cobalt, Ont., on June 16, 2026, seizing approximately 251 grams of suspected fentanyl along with methamphetamine, oxycodone, cash and other drug trafficking paraphernalia.
The OPP reported that the raid took place as part of an ongoing investigation into drug trafficking in the region. Officers seized a significant quantity of drugs, including fentanyl, a powerful opioid that has been linked to numerous overdose deaths across Canada.
In addition to the fentanyl, police found methamphetamine, oxycodone pills, and an undisclosed amount of cash believed to be proceeds from drug sales. Various items commonly used in drug trafficking, such as scales and packaging materials, were also confiscated.
The investigation is ongoing, and no arrests have been announced at this time. The OPP is urging anyone with information about drug trafficking in the area to come forward.
This seizure is part of a broader effort by law enforcement to combat the illegal drug trade in Northern Ontario, which has seen a rise in opioid-related incidents in recent years.
