“The seizure of drugs and illegal firearms from those involved in supplying drug traffickers is key to the detachment’s priority of enhancing public safety,” RCMP Sgt. David Evans said.
RCMP say the two men, aged 24 and 27, are both from Vernon.
Police allege the two were supplying street-level drug traffickers, adding they were arrested for numerous drug and weapons offences.
