She says 21-year-old Keira Furey and 41-year-old Owen Barnes, have been charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking. Furey was released from police custody and is set to appear in court at a later date. Corporal Garland says Barnes, who has a history of arrests and multiple drug charges, was again arrested and charged with possession for the purpose of trafficking, as well as breaching conditions of a release order.
