Lethbridge Police have charged a local woman in connection with drug trafficking targeting unhoused and vulnerable residents.

In mid-March, the Downtown Policing Unit, with support from the Crime Suppression Team and SCAN, observed a female repeatedly engaging with unhoused individuals in activity consistent with drug sales. Police also identified trafficking at a residence on the 1800 block of 1 A Avenue North.

On March 25, officers executed a search warrant at the property, seizing drug paraphernalia. During an arrest away from the residence, police recovered about eight grams of fentanyl, 19 grams of methamphetamine, and nearly $1,000 in suspected drug proceeds.

Andrea Rachel Weasel Fat, 39, faces charges including trafficking, possession for trafficking, and possession of proceeds of crime. She remains in custody; her next court date is April 2. Dwayne Bastien, 29, received 15 days after pleading guilty.
