Members of the Fort St. John RCMP executed a search warrant on a residence on March 14th leading to six arrests.
According to police, members of the Fort St. John RCMP Street Enforcement Team executed a search warrant at 10017 92 Street, Fort St John on suspicions of drug-related activity.
Investigators say approximately five ounces of cocaine, meth, and magic mushrooms were seized along with numerous pill bottles containing dilaudids and hydromorphone pills, cartons of unstamped tobacco, and a firearm.
Street Enforcement Team Commander Constable Connor Watson says the residence was “set up like a drug convenience store” and it appeared that individuals were trading items or using prepaid Visa gift cards as currency during drug transactions.
As a result of the investigation two males and four females were arrested in the residence and police say the individual believed to be running the operation will be facing “significant” numbers of charges.
The Fort St. John RCMP is continuing to investigate the matter and anyone with information regarding the matter is asked to contact the Fort St. John RCMP at (250)-787-8100 or anonymously through Crime Stoppers.
