Selling stolen property online has also led to drug and weapons charges against a Guelph man.
During the summer a Guelph man posted a kiteboard for sale on a Facebook Marketplace. Through investigation police were able to determine the kiteboard had been stolen from Toronto and obtained a search warrant for a south-end apartment unit.
Last Thursday officers executed the warrant and recovered the stolen equipment. A search of the unit also revealed quantities of fentanyl, crystal methamphetamine and cocaine with a total value of $2,700, a spring-loaded knife and bear spray.
A 31-year-old Guelph man is charged with trafficking in stolen property, two counts of possessing controlled substances for the purpose of trafficking, possessing a controlled substance, carrying a concealed weapon and several counts of possessing a weapon while prohibited. He was held for a bail hearing September 23.
