Over the course of two days Surrey RCMP seized thousands of dollars worth of guns, illegal drugs, high-end vehicles and more during several searches.
It’s part of the city’s efforts to crack down on illegal activity, as Surrey has seen a rise in reports of crimes in recent months.
Surrey RCMP’s Drug Unit searched a home suspected to be associated with organized crime in the 15800-block of 94th Avenue in Surrey on Thursday, May 2. Officers found a Porsche Panamera and a Range Rover on the property, as well as a Glock 19 pistol.
