A Saint John man is facing charges after officers searched an illegal weed dispensary on the city’s east side.
Justice and Public Safety said officers executed a search warrant on Simpson Drive back on Nov. 1.
Among the items seized during the search of the business included:
- 2.7 kilograms of dried cannabis
- 116.3 grams of hashish
- 141.6 grams of cannabis resin (brick form)
- About 1,007 grams of extracted resin/oil
- 362 packages of edible gummies
- 119 packages of edible food products
- 175 jars/packs of shatter
- 43 packages of cannabis distillate vape oil
- 114 THC vape pens
- 91 pre-rolled joints
- about four pounds of homemade gummies
Around $1,200 in cash was also seized from the property, the department said in a news release.
A 47-year-old man was arrested and later released with a court date in January.
Only Cannabis NB and provincially licensed private retail stores are permitted to sell cannabis in the province.
