Two Oshawa residents have been arrested after a search by police turned up $125,000 worth of marijuana.

On Wednesday, April 29 at approximately 12:30 p.m., Durham police responded to an apartment complex after “a quantity of packaged drugs was found inside,” according to a news release. The DRPS Drug Enforcement Unit found 26 pounds of packaged marijuana inside one of the units.
