THE Chilliwack RCMP Drug Unit executed five search warrants to disrupt the supply for a street level drug trafficking network.
In October 2024, the drug unit initiated an investigation into a drug trafficking group which was believed to be operating out of Mission.
Over the course of several months, investigators gathered evidence which led the drug unit to initiate an investigation into a suspected dial-a-dope line. Utilizing a number of investigative techniques, investigators identified the suspects involved in the drug trafficking.
On January 31, the Chilliwack RCMP Drug and Crime Reduction units with the assistance of the Lower Mainland Integrated Emergency Response Team (IERT), executed five search warrants at three Mission residences and two vehicles. The following was seized during the search:
- 172.72 grams of suspected cocaine
- 33.58 grams of suspected crack cocaine
- 2.94 grams of suspected methamphetamine
- 4 firearms
- $15,240 cash and
- 2 vehicles, including a 2020 Tesla Model 3 and a 2004 Acura 1.7EL
Three individuals were arrested and have since been released pending further investigation.
“This seizure is another example of our commitment to keeping harmful drugs off our streets,” said RCMP Inspector Jeff Bowerman, Operations Support Officer for the Upper Fraser Valley Regional Detachment. “Our officers will continue to take action and hold those involved in illegal activity accountable.”
If you have information about a crime and wish to report it, you are requested to call Chilliwack RCMP, or report anonymously by calling Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
