Suspect in Whycocomagh cocaine bust elects Supreme Court trial

A man charged in a drug bust in Inverness Co. is scheduled to return to court in the spring.

Police say officers stopped a vehicle on Hwy. 105 in Whycocomagh in April.

They say they searched the vehicle and found cocaine.

Michael Warren Ryan, 28, of Port Hawkesbury has been charged with possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking.

Ryan, whose case opened in July, elected a Nova Scotia Supreme Court trial by judge alone during an election-and-plea in Port Hawkesbury Provincial Court Monday; he’s expected back for a preliminary inquiry, which will determine if there’s enough evidence to send his case to trial, April 30.
