Local facing drug charges, again

A Fort McMurray man has been arrested on drug charges for the second time in three months.

28-year-old Thomas Shortt was charged along with 26-year-old Brandon Burry after being pulled over by police on Thursday.

Back on March 1, RCMP searched an apartment and charged Shortt with drug offences.

Shortt was already due back in court this afternoon, while Burry will appear June 10.

They’re both facing charges of possession for the purpose of trafficking, and failing to comply with conditions, after they were found with 142 grams of marijuana.
