    RCMP-RNC Joint Forces Operation (JFO) West, with assistance from Deer Lake RCMP, conducted a check on a suspicious vehicle yesterday that led to the arrests of 25-year-old Brianna Lavers and 24-year-old Bobby Sheppard, both of Deer Lake.

    Shortly before 3:00 a.m. officers approached a parked vehicle on Pynn’s Brook Road in Pynn’s Brook and determined that Lavers and Sheppard were both in breach of court ordered conditions.  The two were arrested and a search was conducted.  Officers located and seized a quantity of crack cocaine and more than 14 grams of cocaine.
