On June 5, officers executed a search warrant on the RV and Leslie Street residence and allegedly seized over 60 grams of fentanyl worth an estimated $9,500.
Three Collingwood residents and one Sturgeon Falls resident face drug trafficking offences.
"These arrests occurred in the wake of numerous complaints of fentanyl overdoses where OPP and other emergency services needed to administer naloxone to save those individuals," provincial police added.
They ask anyone with information on the case to contact the OPP or Crime Stoppers.
