A complaint about suspicious behaviour at an Innisfail hotel led to local RCMP seizing fentanyl pills, cocaine and a large amount of cash on Monday.

The drug bust began when Innisfail RCMP responded to a complaint from a local hotel about a guest providing false vehicle information and acting suspiciously.

Due to evidence on scene, RCMP began a drug investigation and with the assistance of Calgary Police Service, 46 fentanyl pills, cocaine and over $35,000 cash was seized from a male suspect and his vehicle.

The suspect, from Calgary, age 26, was arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking and possession of property obtained by crime.

Police have not released his identity.
