Drug Overdose Leads to Manslaughter Charge

Police say the death happened in November at a Grimsby home

A 27-year old Grimsby woman is facing drug trafficking and manslaughter charges after the death of another woman last November.

Police were called to a home in Grimsby to find a 27-year old woman dead, of what appeared to be a drug overdose.

The drug, which police say was oxycotin, was much stronger than fentanyl.

Yesterday, police arrested Sophie Ward, who remains in custody pending a bail hearing today.
