The Prince George RCMP say they have been busy this fall while “recently executing several Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (CDSA) search warrants.”
Two warrants in particular, executed last week (between October 9 and 11), yielded roughly 1.5 kilos of suspected methamphetamine, cocaine, and fentanyl alongside 2000 hydromorphone pills and 1000 OxyContin pills.
Body armour and ammunition were also confiscated.
“Our Street Crew Unit then traveled to Langley, B.C. to execute a CDSA search warrant at a residence there they identified as connected with the illicit drug trade in Prince George,” Corporal Jenn Cooper said in a release.
“With the assistance of police officers from the Lower Mainland Emergency Response Team and Langley RCMP, the search warrant was executed and an estimated $100,000 in luxury handbags, $50,000 in stolen motorcycles, a small quantity of suspected fentanyl, and drug trafficking paraphernalia was seized.”
Police say these busts, and others like them, represent “a significant disruption to the illicit drug trade in Prince George.”
Anyone with information on the illicit drug trade is asked to contact local police or to contact Northern BC Crimestoppers.
