Three men and one woman are facing drug trafficking charges after a 10-month investigation in Digby.

RCMP say it began in November 2025 and lasted until September 7, when a home was searched and two kilos of cocaine were seized along with cell phones and cash.

Police say the search was aided by Police Dog Services and drone operators.

A man from Conway a man from Acaciaville, and a man and woman from Quebec were arrested, all between the ages of 50 and 59.

They have been charged with Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking (cocaine) and Possession of Property Obtained by Crime.

All four had first court appearances on Sept. 8 at Digby Provincial Court.
