Calgary police have laid dozens of charges in a drug trafficking operation that focused on a home in the community of Applewood.
The investigation was launched in May after tips from the public led officers to a suspected drug house in the 0-100 block of Applecroft Road S.E.
Police searched the home on June 22, at which time they said the following items were seized:
- 3.9 grams of psilocybin
- 142.2 grams of marijuana
- 46.7 grams of crystal methamphetamine
- 17.2 grams of crack cocaine
- 2 oxycodone pills
- 2.2 grams of marijuana seeds
- 3 Percocet pills
- CZ 858 tactical rifle
- Winchester model 70 rifle
- Stun stick
- High-calibre ammunition
- Drug paraphernalia
- Cellphones
- $2,559 cash
Constable Nick Wilsher said the home had been a problem in the community for an extended period of time.
“When we had executed the warrant and the people had been taken away, all the residents of the whole street actually came out and applauded the police, they were so grateful it had been closed and the matter dealt with.”
Police arrested and charged 49-year-old Trevor Honish and 34-year-old Tara Sprayson. They are facing a combined 45 drug and weapons-related charges.
