Officers later executed a search warrant at an apartment on Nollet Crescent, where they found methamphetamine, heroin and drug paraphernalia. A 26-year-old man in the home was taken into custody.

Alexandria Nicole Mansbridge, 21, and 26-year-old Dexter Curtis Miller, both from Regina, have each been charged with possession of methamphetamine for the purpose of trafficking and possession of heroin for the purpose of trafficking.

Christelle Leah Smith, 29, also from Regina, has been charged with possession of methamphetamine for the purpose of trafficking.
