In a Friday news release, police said they executed a search warrant at a home in the community on June 15, around 3:20 p.m.
During the search, officers seized a 22-calibre rifle, “a significant quantity” of what police believe to be cocaine and drug trafficking paraphernalia. Cash was also seized.
Police arrested four men at the scene, three of which were later released.
