Multiple arrests and over $70,000 in cocaine and cash being seized was the result of a two-month long investigation into a dial-a-dope operation that had been operating in the Williams Lake area.
Seven local residents and one individual from Port Coquitlam were arrested.
“A multi-unit coordinated response over several months permitted this investigation to be a success,” said Williams Lake RCMP Inspector Jeff Pelley in a release.
“It is a testament to the dedicated officers who worked long endured hours to make this investigation a success and our community safer.”
A search warrant executed on a residence in Williams Lake according to RCMPÂ resulted in further evidence to support potential charges of drug trafficking.
“I believe the targeting of these multi-level sophisticated cocaine traffickers will certainly impact the crime trends associated to drugs and violence making these offenders fully accountable within the court system,” said Pelley.
