Strathmore RCMP have arrested a woman for drug offences following what started out as a property damage complaint.

On Sunday police responded to a call of property damage at a motel in Strathmore where it appeared a firearm had been discharged.

Through their investigation police ended up arresting a woman for possession of drugs which included 48 grams of cocaine and some crystal meth.

She also was in breach of conditions from other drug related charges a few weeks prior.

RCMP say Echo Brandt, 39, of Strathmore is facing charges of possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking, possession of a controlled substance, and failing to comply with an undertaking.

The nature of the original property damage complaint is still under investigation and no charges have been laid in relation to that incident.
