A Canada-wide arrest warrant has been issued for alleged cocaine trafficker André Chartrand of Notre-Dame-de-la-Merci.
The 53-year-old man is facing charges following an investigation by the RCMP’s Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit (UMECO). He failed to appear at his trial, which was scheduled to begin on June 23.
Mr. Chartrand is facing multiple charges related to the production, possession, and trafficking of narcotics after a clandestine cocaine processing lab was discovered in Saint-Jérôme in April 2022.
Large quantities of chemicals were found on-site. The illicit cocaine processing activities posed a serious risk to public safety due to the high risk of fire and explosion.
Anyone with information regarding Mr. Chartrand’s whereabouts is asked to contact the Royal Canadian Mounted Police at 514-939-8300 or 1-800-771-5401. (N.P.)
