A man faces drug charges as a result of an investigation by members of the Drug Unit of the Integrated Criminal Investigation Division. 

On November 5 at 10:48 p.m., officers attended a business located in the 1500 block of Bedford Highway. A man was arrested without incident at the scene and found to be in possession of a quantity of cocaine. 

Twenty-year-old Austin Pasquale Awald was scheduled to appear in Halifax Provincial Court earlier today to face charges of trafficking in cocaine and possession for the purpose of trafficking in cocaine.
