Huntsville OPP responded to a call about suspicious persons at a business on King William Street late Monday night.

Police say officers arrived to find a man and woman on the property, both wanted on outstanding warrants.

The woman was arrested and later released with a new court date, while the man, 43-year-old Scott Purves of Huntsville, was found in possession of suspected cocaine and prohibited weapons.

 He faces multiple charges, including possession of a Schedule I substance and firearm-related offenses.

Purves was held for a bail hearing today in Bracebridge.
