A Yorkton man facing numerous charges following his arrest near Carlyle, has appeared in court again.

In Carlyle Provincial Court yesterday (Wed), 26-year-old Austin Ross was remanded in custody for a bail hearing on March 26. 

Last Thursday afternoon, Mounties observed a speeding vehicle, pulled it over, and conducted roadside tests, which confirmed the driver had allegedly consumed both cannabis and cocaine before driving.

A search of the vehicle uncovered a loaded handgun, 133 grams of crack cocaine, 23 grams of illicit cannabis, pocket knives, and drug trafficking paraphernalia.

Ross faces more than 20 charges in all, including assaulting a police officer.
