RCMP Announces One of the Largest Drug Busts in Surrey RCMP history

Seizures include significant amounts of cocaine, MDMA, methamphetamine, fentanyl and counterfeit pills.

Surrey RCMP say a year-long investigation into a criminal group has resulted in one of the largest seizures of illicit drugs in the agency’s history. 

Police say investigators with the Surrey RCMP drug unit conducted seven searches in Surrey, Coquitlam, New Westminster, Vancouver and Richmond, yielding significant amounts of cocaine, MDMA, methamphetamine, and fentanyl, along with prescription and counterfeit prescription pills.

Guns, ammunition, body armour, cars and $119,000 in cash were also seized.

Three men between the ages of 24 to 47 have been arrested, although police say multiple suspects were identified and taken into custody during the investigation. Mounties say a report to Crown recommending charges against the three men is being prepared.
