Surrey RCMP seize guns, drugs, cash in trafficking investigation [Video]

Mounties in Surrey are touting a recent seizure of illicit drugs as one of the largest in the detachment’s history.

Authorities said searches of seven properties in multiple jurisdictions on the Lower Mainland yielded a combined 102.8 kilograms of cocaine, fentanyl, MDMA and meth, as well as nearly 2,000 counterfeit and prescription pills, more than $100,000 in cash, and illegal firearms.

Staff Sgt. Glen Leeson, with the Surrey RCMP Drug Unit, said the fentanyl alone amounted to more than 300,000 doses and had a street value of around $7 million. He described the seizure as one of the most significant he’s seen on his two decades on the job.
