Authorities at Collins Bay Institution made a large seizure of contraband earlier this week.
Acting Assistant Warden Heather Hyndman says staff members found several packages of contraband on Tuesday night, which contained 73.2 grams of hashish, 94.6 grams of marijuana and 29 grams of a substance believed to be “shatter”.
The total estimated institutional value of the seizure is $23,000.
Hyndman says police have been notified and the institution is also investigating where the packages came from.
