A man and a woman face numerous drug and other charges after they were arrested last week when staff at the Elora Gorge park alerted police the pair was staying at the park in a stolen vehicle.

On Sept. 12 Wellington County OPP were contacted by the warden of the Grand River Conservation Authority at the Elora Gorge.

Police say staff at the park saw a man “that they knew to be a fugitive camping at the park in a stolen car.”

OPP officers, who located meth, heroin, crack, marijuana and the stolen sedan, arrested the man and woman who was with him.
