York Regional Police say two people have been charged after more than half a million dollars worth of various drugs — including several kilos cocaine and meth — were seized in the Greater Toronto Area.
As part of an investigation into the alleged sale of drugs by two people that was launched in August, police say a suspect was arrested on Friday while allegedly trying to sell cocaine in a parking lot on Gordon Baker Road in Scarborough.
Search warrants were executed at a home in Markham and a storage unit in Toronto, which police believed the suspects were using to store drugs.
Police say they seized more than four kilograms each of cocaine and methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), more than 5.5 kilograms of meth, four pounds of marijuana and over $90,000.
