The search warrant was executed with the assistance of the Southeast District Containment Team, the RCMP Police Dog Service, and the South East District Emergency Response Team. These specialized units helped mitigate risks to public and police safety.
Officers arrested two people from inside the residence, who were later released pending further investigation. Evidence of alleged offences will be forwarded to the British Columbia Prosecution Service for consideration of appropriate charges at their discretion.
Police located over 500 grams of illicit drugs, including heroin, methamphetamine, and fentanyl. Officers also located a firearm, cash and packing consistent with drug trafficking.
