On Thursday, September 15, 2022, Houston RCMP began a drug investigation after receiving information of suspicious activity believed to be tied to drug trafficking.

Throughout the investigation, police gathered evidence and learned of further people possibly involved.

Surveillance, conducted on a residence, resulted in one person found with suspected illicit drugs. Surveillance was conducted at another residence a short distance away and police observed vehicles arriving and staying briefly over a short time period.

A search warrant was obtained for two residences in the community. During the search police located and seized four (4) firearms, a large sum of cash, small amounts of illicit substances, various drug trafficking materials and a large amount of suspect methamphetamine and fentanyl. 

"We continue to focus on these types of offences. With the removal of these items from the streets certainly contributes to public safety," said Cpl. Ryan Fillmore, Operations NCO Houston RCMP.

Our investigation continues and if you have any information about this contact the Houston RCMP at (250) 845-2204.
