A drug bust in rural Lambton County has resulted in eight charges against a Warwick Township man.

Lambton OPP say Mark Duffy, 31, is charged with three counts of possession of a controlled substance and five counts of possession of stolen property under $5,000.

The estimated value of the seized drugs is $3200. Police also located five road name signs that had been stolen from around Lambton and Middlesex counties. The estimated cost to replace these signs is over $500.
