Two Fort Qu’Appelle residents charged in connection with the alleged trafficking of prescription drugs, were back in court yesterday (Mon).

67-year-old Chester Arnold and 56-year-old Vera Ryder will return to Fort Qu’Appelle for their Preliminary Hearing on May 31st.

Arnold and Ryder were two of five people arrested in February, after a month-long investigation led to the seizure of opioids, cash and cell phones.

Three of the adults were later released without charges.
