Richmond Co. drug bust suspect pleads guilty

A man charged in relation to a drug bust in Richmond Co. has entered a guilty plea in the case.

RCMP say officers searched a home in West Arichat in September.

They say they seized cocaine, hash, marijuana, cutting agent, cash and other drug trafficking paraphernalia.

Police charged Jonathan Roger Vance, 25, with possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking and three weapons-related counts.

Vance pleaded guilty during an election-and-plea hearing in Port Hawkesbury Provincial Court May 27; he’s scheduled to return to court for sentencing July 29.
