Warrant issued for suspect in Inverness Co. drug bust

A man from Cape Breton Co. charged following a traffic stop in Inverness Co. has had a warrant issued for his arrest.

David Carroll, 46, faces charges of trafficking cocaine and possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking.

Carroll was scheduled for a charter application in Port Hawkesbury Monday; he didn’t appear, and the judge issued an arrest warrant.

The Sydney-area man was committed to stand trial following a preliminary inquiry in Port Hawkesbury Provincial Court in June 2018; he had a Dec. 23 date set for his trial in Nova Scotia Supreme Court in Port Hawkesbury in May.

RCMP say they stopped a vehicle on Hwy. 105 in Aberdeen in Nov. 2017.

They say they found 160 grams of cocaine and some drug paraphernalia.
