A Renfrew man is facing trial accused of running a drug business from his home in the town.

It’s alleged that Steven Carroll, 28, grew and dealt cannabis, from his home in Riglands Gate.

Prosecutors claim Carroll produced the drug at his home on March 7, and he is accused of being concerned in the supply of the drug from his home on the same date.
