Grande Prairie RCMP have arrested two men and seized drugs and weapons, following a month-long investigation.

On May 22, members of the Grande Prairie RCMP Municipal Drug Unit, with the assistance of Grande Prairie RCMP General Duty, executed search warrants on a residence and a vehicle.

Police siezed 2 kg of cannabis marijuana derivatives, 497 oxycodone pills, 46 blots of LSD, 90g of MDMA, 112g of psilocybin (magic mushrooms) and 7g of cocaine.

The searches also resulted in the seizure of a .22 calibre handgun with ammunition, a 12 gauge shotgun with ammunition, an electronic heated press, an electronic money counter, and over $1800 in Canadian currency.

Two men from Grande Prairie, aged 18 and 23 years, were arrested. Charges are pending against both, who are scheduled to appear in Grande Prairie Provincial Court on Aug. 12.

The Grande Prairie RCMP is committed to community safety, and will continue to focus on those who commit most of the crime within the community. Those that traffic in illicit drugs destroy lives, homes, and communities. The RCMP remains fully committed to building safe communities and enforcing laws to their fullest extent, in order to achieve this goal.
