Surrey RCMP announced a significant drug and weapons bust on Tuesday that saw Mounties seize thousands of doses of cocaine and fentanyl.
Five people are facing 48 charges after a six-month RCMP investigation, but only four of them are in custody.
On Tuesday, RCMP displayed guns, drugs and cash confiscated from a “mid-level” crime group believed to be operating throughout Metro Vancouver.
They said approximately 30,000 doses of cocaine and almost 4,800 doses of heroin/fentanyl were seized along with several illegal weapons.
Four Surrey residents have been arrested and charged:
- Bradley Thomas Antrobus, 34, faces two counts of possession for the purpose of trafficking and six firearms-related offences;
- Wyatt Kyle Costain, 28, is charged with six counts with possession for the purpose of trafficking;
- Trevor Desjarlais faces 11 counts of possession with the purpose of trafficking and seven firearms-related offences;
- Reanna Grace Kolakovic, 22, faces five counts of possession with purpose of trafficking.
Costain was arrested in Prince Edward Island.
Surrey RCMP are still searching for a fifth suspect.
Dominic Lastoria, 28, has been charged with 11 counts with the purpose of trafficking.
Mounties say Lastoria is 5-foot-5 inches tall, and 130 pounds with blond hair and blue eyes.
Anyone with information about his whereabouts is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.
