Two men arrested following a drug bust in Antigonish are expected back in court Friday.
Police say members of the Antigonish/Guysborough RCMP Street Crime Enforcement Unit searched a home on Hawthorne St. in Nov. 2017.
They say officers seized a large amount of cocaine, marijuana and cash.
RCMP say two Antigonish men have been charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking.
Michael Charles Benoit, 50, of Antigonish and Coty Weston Leblanc, 24, made their first court appearances in the case in Jan. 2018; they were committed to stand trial by judge alone in Nova Scotia Supreme Court following preliminary inquiries in Antigonish Provincial Court in April.
Their trial opened in September and continued in October; it was scheduled to resume Monday.
It’s now expected to continue Friday.
