A Markham transport truck driver faces drug smuggling charges after the RCMP seized 50 kilograms of suspected cocaine at the Blue Water Bridge near Sarnia earlier this month. “The boxes were examined and found to contain 50 packages of suspected cocaine, weighing approximately 50 kilograms total.”In an interview, RCMP Sgt. Penny Herman said the suspected cocaine is being forensically tested. U.S. border officers reported they found four boxes holding plastic-wrapped packages of suspected cocaine in his truck. In June, a Brantford motorist was charged with multiple drug offences after 48 bricks containing more than 55 kilograms of suspected cocaine was seized from a vehicle at the Blue Water Bridge.
