SURREY RCMP’s Community Response Unit’s investigation has lead to the seizure of drugs, cash and a loaded handgun from a residence in the Whalley area.

On June 3, the CRU executed a search warrant on a residence located in the 13700-block of Grosvenor Road. The residence was identified by officers who were conducting proactive enforcement in the North Surrey area.

The search warrant led to the discovery and seizure of the following:

• A loaded prohibited semi-automatic rifle
• Over $12,000 cash
• 43.42 grams of suspected cocaine
• 176.86 grams of suspected fentanyl
• 203.03 grams of suspected methamphetamine
• 220 grams of suspected psilocybin mushrooms
• 38.45 grams of hydromorphone pills
• 4.38 grams of mixed pills, and
• 3,800 packs of illegal cigarettes.

A total of nine people were arrested inside the residence, identified and released pending further investigation.

“Actions of officers resulted in weapons, drugs, and contraband being removed from our streets, and a suspect facing multiple criminal charges in the future,” said Surrey RCMP Community Response Unit, Staff-Sgt. Nigel Pronger, on Wednesday. “This is an example of the team working within our North Surrey neighbourhoods to improve safety for everyone in our community.”
