Suspect in Inverness Co. drug bust committed to stand trial

A man from Cape Breton Co. charged following a traffic stop in Inverness Co. has been committed to stand trial.

David Carroll, 45, faces charges of trafficking cocaine and possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking.

The Sydney-area man, who was last in court for an election-and-plea hearing in February, had a preliminary inquiry in Port Hawkesbury Provincial Court Thursday.

The hearing determined there was enough evidence to send his case to trial; he’s scheduled to have a date set for that trial in Nova Scotia Supreme Court in Port Hawkesbury June 15.

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

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