Two Windsor residents were arrested Tuesday after patrol officers interrupted what appeared to be a drug deal.

Police say around 8:30 p.m. officers on patrol in the 300 block of Glengarry Avenue saw an adult man and woman “engaging in suspicious activity.”

As officers approached the pair to investigate further, a small, clear plastic bag containing drugs was observed being discarded during the interaction.
