Saskatoon hit and run leads to drug bust

Three people involved in a crash Tuesday in Saskatoon have a lot more to worry about than their smashed bumper.

Saskatoon police were called to the two-vehicle crash just before 5 p.m. at Third Avenue East and McPherson Avenue.

The SUV involved was spotted by a witness leaving the scene.

Police located the SUV not far away, and arrested three men without incident.

A 24-year-old passenger was charged with possession and trafficking after he was found with cocaine, fentanyl, xanax and $2,500 cash.

The driver, also 24, was charged with hit and run and driving while disqualified. Another passenger, a 19-year-old, was arrested on an outstanding warrant.
