Two Sarnia, Ont., men are facing charges of possession of oxycodone for the purpose of trafficking.

Sarnia police said they seized 162 pills, each weighing 80 milligrams after officers executed a search warrant at a home on Confederation Street on Friday.

Police estimated the street value of the drugs to be $10,000.

Two men, aged 21 and 18, are now awaiting bail hearings.

Police said one of the men was already facing a charge of possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking at the time of his arrest.
