“VPD’s Organized Crime Section began an investigation in February 2020, which led to charges against Casey in relation to the production and trafficking of fentanyl, heroin, and cocaine, as well as firearm offences,” said Insp. Phil Heard, commanding officer of Vancouver Police Department’s organized crime section.

“Prior to having to appear for trial in 2022, investigators believe Casey left Canada, however, we believe there are people in Metro Vancouver who have knowledge of his current whereabouts.”

Police describe Casey as six feet tall, weighing roughly 200 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes.
