The RCMP raided a White Rock apartment on Thursday, finding large quantities of drugs including fentanyl and coke — and an 81-year-old woman.
Police said Friday they executed a search warrant at the residence in the 1400-block of Fir Street after several complaints from residents.
Numerous packages of drugs meant to be resold on the street were found inside, including fentanyl, cocaine and methamphetamine, RCMP said.
The 81-year-old woman was living in the apartment along with two adult men. Police arrested the men but have since released them.

The fate of the 81-year-old woman is not yet known. Global News has reached out to RCMP for more information.
