A St. Michael man has been arrested and formally charged with multiple drug-related offences following a police operation conducted last week.

The Barbados Police Service has charged Lordon Emmanuel Marlon Charles, 36, of No. 14 Hilltop, Pinelands, St. Michael, in connection with the possession, intent to supply, and trafficking of cannabis.

Authorities say the charges stem from an incident on Thursday, March 20, 2025, when law enforcement officers executed a search at Charles’ residence. During the operation, police reportedly discovered 5.244 pounds of cannabis, carrying an estimated street value of $11,893.40 BDS.

Charles is scheduled to appear in the District ‘A’ Court on Wednesday, March 26, 2025, to answer the charges.
