It’s the biggest fentanyl seizure in Guelph police’s history.
Police said a seven-month investigation, which began in early 2021, has resulted in the seizure of more than 100,000 doses of fentanyl and four guns.
Several individuals were arrested last fall and others identified as persons of interest as the investigation continued.
On Tuesday, police say officers from another police service notified local authorities that they arrested a man in connection with the bust in the Greater Toronto Area.
