RCMP seized about $100,000 worth of drugs after searching a home in Nanaimo on Nov. 12.

While searching the home, which was located in the 1400-block of Jingle Pot Road, police found heroin, crystal methamphetamine, crack cocaine, powdered cocaine along with $14,125 in Canadian currency.

No one was in the home when the police executed the search warrant. The resident, three men and one woman, were already in custody due to an attempted abduction the previous day.

One of the two suspect vehicles was located near Ladysmith and the other, a 2014 frey Toyota Sienna with BC plate 649MPN has not been located.
