A 56-year-old man is facing drug trafficking charges after a hotel room in Happy Valley-Goose Bay was trashed.
RCMP were called to a disturbance at the hotel on Friday, March 19 and found Alain Binet inside a significantly damaged room.
Binet was arrested and a search warrant was executed after police noticed drug paraphernalia in the room.
A quantity of cash, suspected cocaine, and items police say were consistent with drug trafficking were found and seized.
Binet is charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking cocaine and damage to property over $5,000.
He’s been released to appear in court on July 26.
